Default removing front lip from EM1 civic Si

i am going to take off my front lip that is on my 00 Si in order to repaint it. I know i can see screws holding it in the inner fender but are there any under the lip or any double sided tape holding it on from the factory?

Looking at mine and online all I believe you do is just remove all the bolts holding to the stock bumper and the lip should come straight down off the stock bumper



According to this image and the corresponding part numbers all are listing as bolts

Well its not hard, if you're just careful. I took mine off to clean underneath it and put it back on. Its been awhile, and I don't remember exactly how many clips there are, but there are bolts/screws that hold the clip on, but you have to pull the clip off also.

Its easier if you remove the front bumper completely.
