Default CF Spoon Lip

I recently purchased a CF Spoon lip and was wondering how people mounted them. Ive heard of people double side taping them on but I dont think that I would trust that. So anyone make custom hardware for them or what not? Let me know! I've tried searching but havent been able to find anything. The new search kicks my ***!!!

Mock it up with double-sided tape, and carefully drill holes through both lip and bumper..
Then use Nuts and Bolts to secure it on.

When you install, make sure you center the lip with the bumper. Don't try to wrap it around from one side to the other. Double sided tape is very strong. Has held up on my car very well. I go through summer/winter/rain and scraping, no problems

Im going to be getting a Seibon lip soon and I was thinking about installing it with the bumper off. Then using some of those bolts with no slots in the head with nuts on the other side. That way its really hard to steal.

Yea that stuff works well if you do the prep work first. I would take the bumper off, wash it and when its all dry apply the tape to the lip then put it on and then do your screws. I would pre drill your screw holes with a drill bit and use nylock nuts on the screws. I left my bumper off and in the living room for a few days to give the tape time to properly bond
