Help Needed: Installing Lip Kit
For those of you who installed the lip kit, any advice on how to install it. There were so many screws/parts that came with the kit that I am a little confused as to where they all go. I really want to do this mod myself but just need a push start . Thanks in advance!

Do you have the directions, various holes need to be drilled into the bumper and the rear bumper needs to be cut. Acura has directions on a PDF, with step by step, how what to do, for their techs, open to the public

You can probably do it for the front by removing the straps pieces that goes from the lip to the bumper thus not needing the holes but not sure how well tape only will hold.
For the rear you can do the same but again, not sure how well tape only will hold. The rear, you also need to cut the bumper to install the lip and there's no way to avoid it.
I would just install as it is intended with drilling and all. It is one of those things that once you put it on. It's staying on.

Just a bit on the fence here of pulling the trigger on purchasing the entire lip kit. I don't think I have the confidence to do drilling into my bumper even if it seems to be really minimal drilling required. For those that got it installed "professionally" how much did you guys pay exactly? I just called in to the closest Acura dealership and they want $435 to install all the parts!

I was going to download everything tonight just to keep a personal archive. But when I tried clicking on any link just now it said access has been restricted. By any chance did anyone download or does anyone have the installation instructions for the grille and rear trim? I'm thinking about picking up a set of the midnight dark chrome pieces.
