Default Amuse Lip

I installed my amuse style front lip, still have small gaps... I'm thinking about getting it molded to my bumper. I might pull it and try to re-fit it, but I really don't feel like putting more holes in my bumper.

anyone know how much it would cost to have it refitted and molded?
also, if anyone has experience with install, I could use some help (chicagoland area).

Thanks, Luke.

Even the authentic one doesn't fit perfectly. I've just learned to live with the small gaps.

I am putting mine on today (as well as Air Walker side skirts). I plan on using some filler between the lip and the bumper to help fill the gaps, the use touch up paint to conceal it. Will post pics when done.

I got it from spugen.

The gap on the drivers side is long and very very thin, the passanger side gap is close to the edge and only gaps around the corner, however, is is bigger (half my pinky).

it may just be because it's offset a little bit, i may try pulling it and repoisitioning it, maybe it expanded a little bit over time and the hot summer weather.

GAPS ARE ANNOYING!

I plan on buying the Spugen lip as well. And some boat silicone!! I used some silicone on my Air Walker lip kit for the same minor problem. However, I thought I was clever and used paintable white silicone. Well, dirt stuck to it like a mofo. Bought the regular silicone next but never got around to fixing it.
What is different about boat silicone? And where did you put it? Install the lip first them put the silicone over the seem afterwards? Or did you put it underneat or on first? Thanks! Looks good!
