Default dang... why did i even put the lip on !!!!

i installed my ctr abs lip on my ek hatch . and guess what happen ..... my lip melted after a 2 1/2 hour drive !!!!!im so pissed off . the muffler tip was right behing the lip about 2 inches away but i guess because the hot air coming out for that amound of time, it ended up melting the lip !!!!!

will a oem ctr lip melt as easy or will it be better !!!

is their anything i can do to fix the lip ?

No lip is gonna withstand all that heat coming from your exhaust tip unless it's made of steel. You're gonna have to extend your exhaust tip so that it pokes out and sits at least flush with your lip.

Photobucket automatically resizes them for you.

wtf would be the point of that, it would just be a waste of time and dollar's. the length between the bumper and the exhaust tip the heat still would bossible be able to melt the lipeven with the wrap on if he chose to do that, seen it done, and wittnessed a lip melt b4
