Default Intense Motorsports LIP - How to install??

Hey all, just wondering how you guys installed this lip: http://intensepower.com/rsabsfrlip35.html

Im having it sprayed tomorrow, and I did not see any mounting hardware/double sided tape in the box. Does this thing come with hardware??

Any input is appreciated!

ask the shop thats painting it to fit it and drill holes...tape might be enough but tape+bolts is recommended

That looks like a Nismo Replica. You should be able to use all the OEM clips that is if all the holes line up.

Post pix when you get it installed.

Also can you do me a favor, can you measure the clearance you have before and after the install? I'm debating on whether I should lower my car or not because my driveway is hard enough to drive onto. Lip looks pretty good.

Will do, I planned on doing this anyways to see if there will be much of a difference in height with/without it.

This is what you should do:


Attach the lip starting with the middle section and move it around until you have a perfect alignment (get a friend to help you, it will be hard to do this yourself).

After the lip is placed and centered, have your friend hold the lip in place, then take your hand and feel for two bolts (2 on each side of the bumper-at the ends/corners of the lip).

Mark where the bolts line up to the lip.

Take the 4 bolts out and drill a whole where you marked on the lip.

Put double sided tape on the middle portion.

Put the lip back on and insert the bolts onto the lip.


DONE.

^ btw, these instructions are pending that the lip reaches the bolts under the car.

You can get hardware at well, the hardware store. Get black screws too, not cheesy silver shiny ones that will stock out and look dumb.

The spoiler should have come with two brackets for the bottom.. you sure the body shop didn't lose them when they unpacked the lip? Either way they are two 4" long strips of metal with holes drilled on each side, should take about 5 minutes to make. Otherwise call Intense and say you never got them, they should mail some right out. No biggie...

Does anyone have any pictures of this lip on their car? Maybe with the stock sideskirts? Or maybe in SilverStone?
