Don't put me down on the list but I might be interested in this if i can come up with the funds...and i got a quick question, does anyone know how easy is it to install a new lip? Is it something I can do myself in 5 minutes or do I have to take it somewhere to get it done? What all is involved in replacing my current lip? Thanks

The current lip is like... 4 bolts (2 on each side) from what I've seen 2 or 4 rivvets underneath, 3 or 4 screw between the lip and bumper so you need to kind of put a wedge between it to hold it app art while you unscrew it, and then a few clips underneath that pop with a screw driver. That takes about 15 - 20 min to remove depending on your skill of removing car parts but yes can be done at home.

Installing the lip we will have is like 4 - 6 bolts that ar eall easily accessible.

Uhmmmmmmmm! Id saaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy.....

Less than two weeks

Fitcapo is bringing the front lip by this weekend so that we can create the mold. The great thing is the lip has been on the car for quite some time so you know what that means? Since the lip has been for quite some time, it has taken the shape of the bumper as its natural curve. Some of you might not know that new parts from the dealer (fenders, lip kits, bumpers) have a good amount of tension after installed since its been sitting flat for some time. But it being on the car for a while allows it to keep the shape.

recently, my lip got curbed !@#$ and i tried to remove the front lip but i noticed there were 8 screws on teh bottom of the lip and i couldnt figure out how to take them off since they didnt have a phillips head. it was just a tiny round hole, and an allen doesnt work either... i never removed the bumper either, so i dont know if that helps removing the lip.

i may be interested in the CF front lip. my dad's friend's body shop quoted me 300 - 350 paint the entire front lip if the total price of the lip comes out cheaper, i may be interested!
