Default Lips and Install

I just got my lips in today. It came with four scrwes but i really want some more stuff to hold it on. What does everyone use and whats the best way to prep and paint the lip. Should i ride around with the lip on for a week or so so that it will form its shape? Should I paint the lips on the car of off the car. I have herd of some lips fitting and then people painting them and go back to install and it has shrunk.

i would paint the lip while its off the car. makes it alittle easier. and you could also use double sided tape along with the screws. it should hold on fine

If I fit the lip and then take it off, to paint it and put it back on after that should it be the same fitment as before I painted it? Also where do you place the double sided tape? How should you prep and pain the lips?
