Default 92-95 Type R Lip Install

Ok, I am sure it's been covered a lot (it actuallly has I've searched) BUT my lip came with ZERO bolts, and no instructions. It's Saturday so Honda is closed, so I'm going to make a trip to Home Depot. My question to you is... what should I buy? I was thinking just 3 bolts/nuts and 6 washers. and installing 2 in the wheel well and 1 in the middle of the lip. Does this sound good? I am afraid that the bolts will be easy to see, so if anyone else has an idea. Thanks in advance

Scott

I'd probably do 5 bolts. One in the middle, one on each side of the middle, and one on each side of the ends. If you put a screw through the back part (in front of the wheel) you will be able to see it, not a big deal, just one screw, just touch up the scew with whatever color the lip is, whether it's colormatched to your car, or black.

Awesome, time to go to Home Depot Thanks How big do you suggest the bolts be? I'm sure I could figure it out... but might as well ask

When I put my lip on, I measured how much depth I would need, and added about a 1/4 inch. Didn't want super long bolts. I put the bolts in from the bottom, so the excess is hidden by the bumper. If you're worried about it getting stolen, might try buying allen head bolts, to slow them down
