Hey all, I recently bought a 97 gsr and it came with this front lip. I am wondering if I take it off, are there gonna be holes and glue and stuff underneath?

Here are some pics.

 

You might not have any lip at all if you take it off,
I think that's a full front lip(mugen replica), so it probably replaced the stock one.

 

maybe double sided tape but thats easy to remove.

Just keep the lip it looks good.

 

it look so akward becuase there is that big lip but i dont have any side skirts. And sometimes on steep inclines like when your comming back onto the highway from a car wash it scraps on the bottom !!

 

usually just held on by screws. I'd ebay that and get the ITR lip

 

thats a dope lip, mugen replica, i'm sure someone would buy it

 

thats a half bumper. dont take it off unless you replace it with a stock lower half.

just keep it. unless u got something to replace it

 

Check this install instruction out. It's suppose to go over the stock bumper.

The Mugen lip for the 94-97 front does not replace the lower half of the bumper. It is a very tight fitting overlay. It should have double sided tape along the top edge and inside of the grill.

So do any of them replace the bottom stock lip(of the mugen lips), or is it just certain ones that don't?

 

So if I take that halfbumper lip thing off my stock lip will still be there? How hard is double sided sticky tape to remove? is there gonna be left over marks on the stock bumper?

I would say that a typical lip does not replace the bottom half of the bumper (part 2 in the diagram). That piece is structural to the bumper cover.

Your bumper should still be there. Check this by simply feeling underneath. You will most likely have rub marks in the paint and adhesive from the glue. It is in your best interest to leave the lip.

 

hmm, I always thought the full mugen lip was a bottom replacement.

No it does not. It is an overlay. Check the pdf link in this post. There is a diagram of the WW Mugen replica. It is a similar design to the genuine Mugen lip. It is called a lip for a reason. If it replaced the lower hlaf of the bumper, it would be called a bumper.

</TD></TR></TABLE> ...ill take a picture of it..

 

the wings west one sits over stock. my friend had one, i think he was the only person who installed a 94-97 ww lip on a 98 front bumper. but anyways, check out the first pic. im pretty sure that is a replacement lower half bumper. i know for a fact they do exist and they are urethane the same as a ww lip. only way to tell which he really has is for him to check.
