Securing Lip
OK thanks to Klepto i got an ABS lip(ebay one)
so What would yall recommend using to sercure it. since people have had trouble by just using 3mm double sided tape.
Right Now i got some SIlicone Glue, MOlding Tape, and Self Tapping screws. Will that be enough?

i think no matter how u secure the lip... somehow gravity will find away to leave those securing things on... and just take the plastic that it can... leaving u lipless anyway. ABS is delicate.

ABS is good for lots of things, but not body parts that hang by the ground

someone said rivets, ive never had experience with a rivet....
i would take a dremel and make a bunch of holes and zip tie the shit out of it.
just make sure that the zip ties are on a covert mission FTW
