Front Lip Question
Whats going, just bought a used 04-06 front lip for real cheap. Problem (maybe) is it didn't come with the screws and clips or the brackets, templates, and covers. I wasn't worried about the clips, nuts or screws cause I can buy them from autozone. If I don't have the other surrounding pieces will I have an issue? Many thanks in advance and all input would be great.

You'll have to somehow fab up a bracket for it on both sides.
The black pieces under the front lip on both sides aren't really needed.

Ayye GP16 coming through once again lol thanks again man. I'm gonna call my local acura and see if they sell the a hardware package for the front lip like they do for the rear lip. If that doesn't work out I'm just gonna take your advice GP.

Acura doesn't sell the mounting hardware separate from the lip. I tried that about a year and a half ago when I bought my front lip used. I called 2 or 3 different dealerships and even talked to a few vendors on here and they all said it couldn't be done. The only way they could get one is to order a new lip and take the screws and stuff out of that box.

Yea I found this out today which sucks. I'm going to first post a WTB ad in the black market for the mounting hardware then if I get no responses I'll just hit the hardware store and look at various brackets that might to the trick.

The shop that was repairing my bumper did not install the mounting bracket for my front aspec lip. It was only held down with 3m double sided tape and molding trim. But ill tell u, it held on there STRONG, even without screws/bracket. After a few months, I just decided to stop by home depot and made custom brackets just to be on the safe side because i scrape my bumper every single time i pull in/out my driveway. Dont wanna have it hanging while i drive :P
This is the mold trim im talking about:
(installed around the lip)
