i didn't use any double sided tape on mine. mine came with sticky **** on the back of it already and it worked fine. i've had it for over a year and it hasn't fallen off once, i've lightly scraped it but it's still fine. heres a pic of mine.



BTW thats when i wasn't lowered. it sits about an inch off the ground and still no problems

Damn, I think I'm finally gonna have to try that. In the spring, though. Not sure it would hold up to snow plow duty over the MI winter...

I can see a new Home Depot ad for selling -

you have to buy the wide stuff, and mount it higher on the bumper, so it doesnt flare in and out, or just put it on and off like i did, then use thin screw's, i cant find my USB wire, to take pics

but your looks good man. it just sits higher

Only cars HD lips look good on are EF's and CRX's or 94-96 Integras.

Here's my Home Depot lip. I hated it, just the thought of having lawn edging on my car, plus it was ugly as ****.


I switched to an 97 Accord cpe. lip, looks sooo much better. Only pic I have that kinda shows it.

It sucks the aftermarket doesn't get the EF's at all.... anyway I had to get a 92-95 Civic Mugen front lip for 30$ used and molded it to my JDM front bumper took about 3 hrs and at 30$ even brand new ABS plastic ones around 80$ can't go wrong. Rob

No offense. but the reason it looks ugly is because you mounted it on the INSIDE of the bumper, next time try the out side. Also if you used lawn edging as opposed to base molding it looks much different.

There wont be a next time. Its embarassing enough posting pics of the lip, aside from making one all over again. Didnt really want to drill/rivet into the outside bumper anyway, thats the only reason I put it on the inside.

I rock the HDepot lip.
I had one for a while, took it off, then put it back no b/c I liked it so much.
No snowplow, but rodents, coke cans, reflectors, etc...
Very strong. Held in by screws and foam tape.
Fun till paintjob.

well go find ur self an 88 integra lip or try 90-93 front lips.. when i had my 88 hatch i got 88 integra's lips on there the holes underneath should all line up for the lips nuts and bolts, require a little trimming and after that it looks almost stock.
