my abs lip just came today!! do i have to remove the stock lip (gray part at the bottom of the bumper), or does the new one mount on top of it? i searched, didnt find a thread that had any install intructions..

 

it should mount over it. i don't think the stock lip even comes off

 

just and baycl said...........over lay the OE with what you bought and it should juts snap inot place...............just make sure that you double tape that shit out like crazy and also use riviting wherever possible.....

 

Mount the new one on top of it. Use double sided 3M tape and put two screws in each of the inner-wheel wells.

 

damn, thats it?? hmm project VI in the future.

 

hopefully it lasts more than a month

 

I'd put more than 2 screws in that thing. Its prone to flying off

 

i would put way more than 2 screws on

i have many...how hard would it be for someone to walk up with a screwdriver and walk away with a shinny new lip?

 

just got it on!! first i tried the double sided tape but it wasnt cutting it for me so i used that stuff called "plastix" to adhere it to the stock lip and used the stock screws with the clips in the back on either side, their not coming out unless the plastic cracks..plus some self tapping screws..the lip looks excellent and the fit was perfect

 

anyways, good job on the install but just be careful , cuz i heard those ebay lips are not that great..

 

lol well i was going to take pics today but its pitch dark..and my car is black...=)

 

haha its all good..take them wen you can so we can see what your progress is like!

 

I was gonna say gorilla glue that bitch on there.

 

Next he'll have a thread about losing his brand new lip

 

ebay lip

my ebay lips final resting place was ironically in front of the hospital. at least they look good while they last

 

i added some more support to the lip..i drilled two small holes toward the center of the underside and ran zip ties through them, then through some holes that are in that metal frame piece below the radiator and connected them back to the lip so the center of the lip is attached tightly to the frame of the car...we'll see if it holds up

 

it's good that your supporting the lip more, but still...


i had to say it, cuz i'm pretty sure it's not dark out anymore, so you have no excuses now

^ haha guess i must of missed that one, my bad

 

I didn't even notice it was an ABS lip. Screw the hell out of that thing then.

 

i just got the same lip myself did you need to remove the old lip i didnt see if u said u had done that or not?
also how do i make my highbeams yellow? i really like that look

 

Wow, way to read the first couple of posts, it answers that question.

 

seriously, and the headlight question could be found by SEARCHING

 

oh yeah sorry,
but does it get stuffed in between the bumper and the stock lip? my oem lip is ripped up pretty bad from my girl running it up on the curb at 7-11. i just didnt wana be out there all day messin with it and would it be easier to take off the bumper and put it on cause i need to pop a dent outa the left fender near where the bumper and fender touch.

 

yeah i thought the search function was bugged out as it didnot
work before i singed up as a member and didnot tell me that i need to be a member 1st before i could take advantage of the SEARCH feature.

so yeah thx for the help.

 

got it on fine used gorilla glue and some pop rivets. i was freaking out thinking it was gunna be a hard job!
this is a great site lotsa hints and tips

 

^glad it worked out for you, now post some pics of ur car

 

picssss..

 

weather has been crap out here in VA and my car is sooo dirty but ill get some pics and post em this weekend

 

ive had that lip since the summer it hasnt flyed off or even budged like it happened to some people here. what i did was drill to holes on each side then used super heavy duty double sided tape from home depot to use on the middle of the lip.

 

yes i know the car is super dirty
