So I got my Seibon CF CW style front lip in today...searched through the forum but couldn't find any DIYs or install guides for this piece...I've heard that It's mainly bending and flexing the bumper the right way to get the piece to just slide on, add 3M tape to center with a few screws and 2 screws on each side.
However...I can't seem to get this **** thing even on the bumper, I don't want to bend or flex either piece too much..(afraid to crack the CF lip)...is there any trick for this or pictures to help?...trying not to send to a bodyshop..

 

Get one side on and slightly bend the other to get it on.

 

Doesn't seem to work.feels like I'm gonna crack the CF

 

lol..so yep tried "flexing" the bumper into place...yup stress cracks in the clear of the Carbon fiber lip...HOW THE HELL DOES THIS FIT?!...

 

Not sure why you're having a hard time. I got it on, quick. Just give it a good push.

 

I cant wait till mine comes in the mail...sadface

 

SO yea finally got it on..2 cracks in the clearcoat on the Cf lip.and scratched up my bumper on the left side.. joy...NOW how do i attach besides with 3M tape on in the center?...2 screws on each side?...theres almost no room to screw them together.

 

I put my veilside lip on last night. It took two people to actually get it on and another hour for me to get the four bolts to line up right.

 

I put two rivets on the back sides on either sides. Gotta take it back off to get the double sided tape on.

 

I can slip the 3M tape in between the bottom lip and the CF piece thank god, im not taking this back off...there isnt much room to screw in anything (the bumper and the lip)

 

what would you rate the fitment?

 

Near perfect...

 

for mine i didnt use the screws i used rivets on each side and they worked awesome

 

I spent 2 hours with my two best body guys at the shop trying to get my Seibon VS lip to fit... Not a chance in hell it would fit! The lip itself was too short to wrap around the bumper up to each wheel well and the body lines were quite inconsistent where the lip met the bumper

 

What did you end up doing?

 

My authentic CWest lip just slipped right on. No tape or screws needed.

 

My authentic Seibon lip fits on perfect..06+ year...however it was a pain to install. trick is gotta slip in one side then bring the other side of the bumper in on an angle and snaps on..unfortunately i learned the hard way and cracked the CF lip a little bit(non noticeable)

I'm gonna use 3M tape for the middlesection and screws/rivets for the 2 sides maybe a few brackets for underneath for extra support..

 

^^ Post pics of what you use and do plz

 

Yeah, I was thinking of not using anything.

 

Mine i at least have to 3M tape and screw in near the grill section..it doesnt sit on its own..and I would recommend screwing in the sides if not middle also...
