Hey Pete,

Do you have pics with yours installed?

gleung · 10-17-2012, 01:58 PM

I just got mine in the mail today, looks great.

For those who have installed it themselves - were any additional tools or screws necessary? Or can it simply use bolts that are existing in the bumper?

You will need to use the bolts etc that come supplied and a drill.....

Oh... I better check my box again to see if the bolts were included. Is drilling into the bumper required? Any pictures or instructions that you can share?

Thanks in advance.

In the box you should find a bag of screws, nuts and bolts plus a set of destructions as you do need to drill into the bumper, sorry but no pics during fitting of mine but it wasn't a hard job with 2 pair of hands, and the instructions are easy to follow.

Here are the pics of the lip paint matched and fitted. The delivery was lightening fast - only took four days to get to Vancouver. I got raped $140 on duty and customs though. Ordered matte finish, the quality and craftsmanship is superb - solid and sturdy. The only thing I wish was a bit different on the original design is how far the lip extends on two sides. If you see the car from the side it really bugs me... thinking of fabricating something custom to finish the look. Overall pretty happy with the lip.

Luca335 · 10-19-2012, 08:30 PM

Pete,

It looks very nice! I agree with you both sides should be a bit longer.

Agree, which perhaps explains why I like it better in matte black.

But kudos to owner for individualizing it to his taste.

My comment was about the lip being too short in general, not the white painted lip, which I really like.

Its funny, i never noticed this until just now and its starting to really itch me....

Same finish to the GP safety car,but it is more about function over looks, well it is when it is left in the black finish and hardly noticeable

Yes I agree... I sorta saw this coming when I wanted to get it paint matched, i does bug me when the gap's so apparent on white though.

Aussie_in_London · 10-21-2012, 03:54 PM

Couple of coats of satin black Pete and you wont notice a thing....Now rip it off and get to work

I know what you mean, painted in white you see this Corner very hard:-( The Problem: the original lip ends in the middle of the Air scarves, our lip at the end- so you have a better visual at the Front,more aggressiv than the MotoGP- but, you See the end plate from beside! We can't change that, because we can't use the two screws of the wheel Cover for fitting the lip! That's the Thing :-(

Yes I noticed that difference! It is super aggressive from the front... I just wished it extended all the way to the end.... but function is more important in this case?

Why not mate, 3m carbon would look good if that is your thing, will give it a bit of a shine at some angles and look satin at others, so that's a yeah from me.
