I have a brand new WW Type R lip unpainted.. I wanted to mount it like that for now unitl it can get painted.. Should I just use a couple tech screw? Should I leave the double sided tape alone until its painted?

Thanks in advance!

 

The OEM ITR lip has a few brackets that you bolt up to the bumper. I'm not exactly sure how an aftermarket lip like that is mounted, but I assume they sent you a lip with double sided tape on it and no hardware.

If that's the case, I would not install it until it's permanent. (painted)

 

Thats what I was thinking.. The front bumper is getting resprayed as well.. Still I'm sure they'll take it off the lip to paint...

 

When it comes time to paint, I definitely wouldn't try removing it, and reinstalling the used tape.

In order for that double sided tape to bond properly, both surfaces must be cleaned and prepped thoroughly.

If you're going to install it, plan on scraping all of that old foam double sided tape off of the lip and replacing it when it comes time to paint everything.

Personally, I wouldn't rely on tape alone. Is there any way to mount it using bolts/screws/snaps/clips/whatever??

 

It says to use tech screws and the double sided tape.. I wanted to try mounting w a couple tech screws while not using the tape until time for paint..
