take off the stock bumper, bend it (it's polyurethane) to fit the lip, NOT the other way around.

I installed my veilside polyurethane V1 lip myself and didn't experience any problems. I did need the help of another person because it fits tight. Do a couple test fits, then when your ready, clean the area that makes contact with the stock bumper. Make sure you clean both the lip and the bumper. Then use 3M tape. I was told to get the one with the red backing and get as thick as you can. Other than that it should go on with a lil finesse.
