Hey guys i just finally got my front lip in today after a few months of waiting an thinking there woudl be hardware to install it but nope. Can anyone help or direct to somewhere, were there might be like a install pictures or something?? Would like to put it on my self i got a shop i can use to put it on, also the lips got no holes at all.


Just tried to fit it an it seems like it needs to go to the body shop to get put on the corners need to be rounded on the stock front bumper for the lip to fit around the wheel wells.

Hi,
I have the Seibon CW carbon Fiber Lip, and i have the same Question.
I did how ever get it to fit on with my bumper off the car. I think you need to squezz the sides in on the bumper then slide the lip on? it did fit, but had to take it off so i can have it clear bra installed.

If you look under each side of the front bumper near the wheel well there are 2 bolts that you use to mount the lip under the bumper (in your case your going to need to figure out and drill where the two holes are into the lip). For the middle just use double sided tape. As for fitment it's going to take a little bit of force. I mounted the center part first using double sided tape, then with a little bit of pulling I did each side using 2 bolt mounting points under the bumper. I'm at work but I can take a picture of it if you still need it later when I get back. I'll take it off and on so you can have a better idea where the holes go.

hope that helps.

edit: 2 bolts for each side. total 4 bolts and double sided tape in the middle.

Hey James, did you try installing it off the car on the bumper, then install the bumper on the car? Your front bumper will flex out a bit when installed compared to uninstalled. So then the lip wont need to be stretched as far, and it will keep the bumper from flexing so much.

Each side you need to use the 2 bolts that is already under the bumper. The fitment is really tight so it takes some energy mounting it on.






Under 2 bolts used to mount on each side.




Terrible pics I know, but I am still dealing with my Le Mans CF Spoiler install so these will have to do for now.

I did try in with the bumper off and i got it slip on. It was a tight fit, there was one spot where it took a little paint off at the edge of the tire well, but the lip will cover it once on. Im going to try again to install it with the bumber off and see how that goes when i install the bumper back on.

IzYou, Thanks for the pictures, that should help.

Thanks guys for the info. Ill try it again this weekend, ether way its going to fit

Got it installed, took me 2.5 hours and was with making the brackits
Here are some pictures. Ill take an over all tomorrow after i wash my car.
even tho you just use 3m grey tape and the 4 screws, 2 each side. I desided to add some support brackits along the bottom that are attached to the bumper.

I got the clear bra install on the Lip and Air duct yesterday and they did a awesome job.

So this part comes with no hardware and no predrilled holes? Or was this a mistake?

From what i searched, im not sure if any of the lips out there do except maybe some screws that mount on the inside of the tire well. Why i added the mounting brackits on the bottom is i read that someone had a Lip installed with just the tire well screws and the 3m double tape on the center part came off and got cought under his car and it got damaged.
No they dont come predrilled.
