Help with fitting a DA lip
I've tried searching, but can't find the specific info that I need. I have a lip from a 90/91 Integra that I'm trying to put on my 90 Civic hatch. All the attaching bolts across the front and at the corners line up perfectly, but I can't figure out a good way of attaching the ends. The bracket thing that attaches the ends on the Integra doesn't work because you have to trim a couple inches off the lip. How do people attach it while still keeping the lip level and tight against the bumper? Is double-sided tape enough?
Thanks for your help!

Double sided tape stands a snowballs chance in hell.
Mine lines up really nice. It is not a DA lip but close to it. For the ends you speak of I just drilled a hole on the inner lip lining up to the bumper.
I am pretty sure most folk do this.

On the flip side, I'd rather crack/scrape a $2 lip than crack the bumper.
I cracked my bumper because I used bolts to hold the lip on. never again. I just have 1 bolt in the middle so it doesnt completely fall off in case i scrape it

Thanks for all the suggestions. I ended up attaching the ends with some longer bolts going into the Integra fasteners which slot into the bumper perfectly. It's not a 100% perfect fit against the bumper, but good enough that nobody else will notice. Here's a pic!
