Hi guys, anyone here can share a VRS front lip installation guide (thru using self-taping screws and 3M tape)?photos & videos preferred....

very much appreciated..

I dont have any photos or videos but its not very difficult at all. I only used self tapping screws and its still on there tight after several days of hitting ice and slush from the MD winter we're having here.

I used a bunch of blue painter's tape to hold the lip to the bumper, tape it as tight as you can from under the bumper up to the top of the bumper/hood. With it in place I just started to screw it into the bumper.

If you plan on using the 3m double sided tape, apply the tape to the contact area on the lip first then peel back a little bit of it before you do any of the steps above. when you secure it to the bumper with the painters tape just start to peel back the red backing little by little while adding pressure to ensure a good bond.

thanks a lot... How many screws did you use? all eight? I am planning to use screws on two sides and use 3m tape on the middle part. dont wanna drill on the middle part of the bumper . Hope it will work..

I put screws into all the screw holes. I think that will work, 3m tape when put on a clean surface is STRONG.

I use 3M tape to hold on my aero lip with the screws on the side. No problems at all.

Yep, 3M tape across the front and bolts underneath will do the trick.

I just used screws alone, and it's held up very nicely with no gap at all.

will the holes be visible when the lip is removed?

I have the vrs poly lip. On the middle section, there holes on the bottom strip yet there are no holes on the top part. Is that normal? Also do you have to drill through and put it into the bumper? The car is currently at the bodyshop and we aren't sure being that I got no instructions with the lip.

Thanks,

Vin

Have a second set of hands to help line it up and hold it while you use self taping screws and screw them in.
