Front Lip Installation GuideUpdated 2 hours ago

Tools Required

  • Jack and jack stands or ramps (optional but helpful)

  • Drill with appropriate bits

  • Double-sided automotive tape (3M recommended)

  • Self-tapping screws or bolts (included with the lip)

  • Cleaning supplies (isopropyl alcohol, microfiber towels)


1️. Preparation

  • Jack up the front of the car for easier access.

  • Clean the underside of the front bumper.

  • Use isopropyl alcohol to remove any remaining grease or wax where the lip will attach.


2️. Test Fit the Lip

  • Hold the front lip against the bumper to check alignment and fitment.


3️. Apply Double-Sided Tape (If Applicable)

  • Apply 3M automotive-grade double-sided tape along the edge of the lip that will contact the bumper.

  • Peel a few inches of the backing off to make it easier to apply later during final positioning.


4️. Install the Lip

  • Align the lip with the bumper using your markings or masking tape as guides.

  • Press firmly if using tape.

  • While holding the lip in place, begin installing screws or bolts starting from the center and working outward.


5️. Final Adjustments

  • Make sure the lip is centered and flush against the bumper.

  • Tighten all fasteners securely.

  • If using tape, press and hold for 30+ seconds to ensure strong adhesion.
