i really would want to avoid screwing it into the grill. i think you can screw it under the lip

glad someone likes it!

 

hey i like it too i visit your car section though

 

well shoot, you guys are making me want to go updating all that stuff now.

okay...soon, I promise!

 

Hey i got a quick question, what does the tape strip do and how do you apply or use it because i am ordering a Comptech front lip in a group buy and i wanted to make sure i knew how to install it, thanx HT members you guys are great!

 

On-topic - you could try some 3M double-sided tape and minimal screws. Once that 3M stuff sticks, its hard to get off!

Off-topic - Hogans site is da bomb!

 

looks like that's not OEM lip. You need to drill 2 holes or real OEM lip.

 

thanks b18c

If anyone needs those self-tapping screws I have a couple extra packages of them. I was going to host another groupbuy but it looks like the other one is doing well enough for the time being.

I'm hoping our GB goes as good as yours did. My lip is painted and I'm picking it up tomorrow. I want to just put it on myself and but my friend is begging me to have the shop put it on. It looks so simple, right?

 

why is your friend begging you to have the shop put it on? just do it carefully and make sure its even. is there a possible way it may stick on unevenly?

 

Go to wingswest.com and the have instructions on how to install lips.

I test fitted it today and it looks purdy painted. I'm sure it won't be a problem. One question though.

Tweak: I see on my car where there are already little holes on the fender well on each side. Are those where the self tapping screw go? Am I suppose to put those screws through that back of the lip on each side?
