My type R replica front lip just came in the male from ebay. I put it on to check the fitment and it'll fit alright with some heat. I've read all the lip posts on here and I was just curious how to keep the middle of the lip secure. i was going to do 2 screws on the ends by the tires but I dont know how to secure the middle. I saw one with 2 screws in front but I dont want screws showing. would double sided tape hold up against wind and scrapes? I just dont want my lip falling off. thanks

I would screw it in or even use some plastic cement...I had a replica before i get my oem lip and ended up hitting a raccoon and the lip snapped off. So I would definitely secure the center of the lip with something double sided tape seems a little flimsy to me.

if you hit a raccoon it was going to fall off no matter what lol i got one on my eg right now and i didnt put anything in the middle i was thinking of two screws but i figeur if i srape the front it will slide a lil and not crack the lip if you put screws in the middle u got a good chance if you scrape it will crack

is there a way to screw it in without the screws showing? I would do underneath but there is a gap between the bottom of the bumper and the lip

O, and i forgot to say this is for my eg2 with an ebay "oem" front bumper

I am going to install the lip today then drive it to school. I bought some double sided tape for the middle but I still cant find a spot to screw it in without screws showing....

Get some shorter screws and double sided tape. I have a ebay lip thats similar and i had a screw showing problem. Quik trip to home depot fixed it. I also used a very small amount of gorrila glue in the middle. But be careful if you use it as it expands 3x its normal size, but its the best.

Well I have the double sided tape. I'm going to 2 two screws on the ends, tape in the middle, and figure out a better way for the middle.

dont say i told you so but when you hit a dip a lil to hard and ur lip cracks where you have the two screws in the middle the double sided tape isnt a bad idea except if you take the bumper of you got the double sided tape still on ur bumper

well it ended up being crappy double sided tape. (couldnt find 3M) so I stuck 2 screws kinda near the front (ill get pics up). And its Urithane so it shouldnt crack easily

I decided I kinda like the screws there.
