Default Fitting APR/Amuse replica

I bought this cheap replica lip to mess with and came all bent and uneven which is expected. I dont mind puttin work. I Used a blow dryer to get it in its best form. (I need a heat gun!) So far its coming out good. I just test fit it and modifying the brackets to mount in specific location to make it flush. I didnt screw anything on, i just stuck it on.




Ill post my progress when im done.

actuall no its not. When I got it it looked warped. All i had to do was heat it with a blow dryer or heat gun to get it soft and it will take its normal shape. You can leave it out in the sun also and watch it do magic on its own.

I already rivited the brackets in but havent put it on my car but i know it will fit nice. Im waiting on a specific order before I mount the lip.
