Default Assistance needed in accord type r front lip install...

Hey guys,
I just recieved my 94-95 accord type r lip, in white lol, and I am in the process of installing it. I have my bumper off anyways so I figured why not? The actual length of the lip is fine as it wraps around and meets pretty much even on both ends. However, there is not much surface area to drill holes or attach it in any way. So what I am asking is how do the members who have these lips attach theirs? Pictures would be awesome if anyone has them. Thanks again guys!

3M double sided tape and self tapping screws from your local hardware store.

w00t.. contact cement helps too, put it on top of the double sided tape, and itll never come off..

Cool, I found this industrial 3m mounting tape used for "outdoor" projects that can even hold to brick. It states that it can also hold 5pounds per inch, so that, I figure with one or two self tapping screws in the center should hold pretty well. Thanks guys!

Is that the red "mounting" tape that you can find at local parts stores from 3m? If so, I can get that much more easily. I can also use one or two of the holes in the center like you said, but where are the holes you are using on the ends?

A little help here...







Ok, Thats the lip that I just got...But there seems to be no where to drill holes or anything other than the little peice in the front.

So my question is to everyone that has dealt with this lip...What exactly did you do and do you have any picture that might help me? Let me know!

Thanks!

on this one, the flat edge that would be against the bottom of the bumper was alot bigger than yours. we had plenty of room to use self tapping screws on it. where did you buy yours from? you might want to send it back and buy from seibon i believe it was? ill find out a little later on and post back tomorrow exactly where.

I am not sending it back that wouldn't make sense. "Where theres a will, Theres a way!" So anyway...I am going to look at it right now...I will keep everyone posted.
