I just used the two screws on the inner fender wells, and then used the 3M tape along the whole front. Had it like that for over 6 months with no problems at all. I didnt use those crappy brackets at all. I was thinking about getting the weather stripping, but I like mine how it is.

 

Thanks for that pic, how much did u pay to paint your lip? Macco and grand sport in my area want 180 to paint the lip! What cheaper alternative do I have?

 

I'm pretty sure he painted his himself. You can find OEM paint in a rattle can which would be a lot cheaper than $180.

One thing I wanted to ask about the baysonr lip is if there were holes drilled and if they line up with the bolts on the bumper.

 

^ Yes sir you are right. I painted it myself with a can of Suzuka I bought from Automotivetouchup.com. I highly recommend them. I have posted it alot of the threads and got a couple other people to try to paint their lip, and came out with good results. The color matches pretty well also, which is hard with metallic colors. Can of Base was $20, and a can of clear coat was like $8 there. I only used about 1/4 of the can doing 3-4 good coats of base color, then 2-3 coats of clear. Then when you get a rock chip or anything, just sand it down, and re-spray it. Looks like new!

I dont have the baysonr lip. I got mine a long time ago from a seller that doesnt have them anymore, but the fitment seems the same between these two. The holes on mine are aligned properly, but they are not spaced out enough to use those brackets right.

 

do you have to use like 1500 grit of sandpaper between coats? like wet sand it?

also since i have spa its still around 80 bucks to paint myself lol. ahve people had good luck with painting it themselves on a tri color base paint?

 

^ The first time I did, but when I re-painted it I just sanded it down, and gave it a few coats of base, then clear. It still came out good. I think i've seen a spa that did it before. Its just a tad bit darker, but its as close as you can get. Not bad for paint in a rattle can.

 

I know there is a website that mixes paint for you into a spray can. A lot of people used that.

 

I just said where I got my paint from, and where everyone else got theirs since I said it was a good place to get it.
