Default front splitter w/ebay lip

I know I know...but I got the lip for 50$ added the oem trim and had it painted ... All in all Ive got 100$ into it and the loom/fit is 8.5/10 paint match 9.5/10 ...so my question.

What would be the best lip Protector that I could make work with the lip? It doesn't use oem mounting locations but I'm sure I could drill where necessary.... Looking for abs plastic not carbon fiber. My side splitters are low pro aero, im just worried the front splitter won't be able to mount well enough to keep it from pulling off at speed. The car is not tracked, just some auto cross and daily driven.

How much did you pay to have the lip painted and clearcoated?

I got the Low Pro Aero front and side diffusers to protect my painted eBay lip. Looks badass and whole package cost me about $250! Highly recommend it. It's been on the highway going 80 without a problem.

How did you mount it? That's what I'm trying to figure out. Or did you just drill where necessary?

No drilling required on the front. It picks up existing holes in the bumper. I BELIEVE the bumper should have unused speed nuts that the splitter should use, but mine was missing them so I used longer bolts with big ass washers and locking nuts. I may still have the instructions laying around. PM me your email and I'll scan and send to you tomorrow assuming I can find them.
