Ctr Lip! Need Help Instaling "pics"
Hey guys, I need your help installing my new rear Civic Type R lip, Ive never installed one so I don't want to **** it up, these are the bolts it came with
and here is the lip, just wandering where each bolt goes once it's on the bumper, my buddie told me I have to drill holes, so if you can help me explain where goes where Id really apriciate it

.... from the looks of it I don't think there's anything for the double sided tape to stick to.... hence the long bolts
I think the long bots are to bolt from the bottom of the lip all the way up to the underside of the bumper and the fitment had to be adjusted accordingly..... that's my guess and the other screws are for the end of the lip that warps around the bottom of the bumper / wheel well
dam ppl I've said many times about these white abs garbage... Don't buy them coz they're CHEAP.... you'll regret it.... the're brittle, they don't fit properly and they're not worth it.... IMO
anywayz that's my input.... ignore if u or anyone don't like what's said
[edit] enguish owns me...

3M tape will not hold it up because the lip will get scrapped eventually and the adhesive will rip off ... 3M tape is best used for door moldings ... you will have to drill some holes along the bottom of the oem bumper and into the lip ... i suggest you take your front bumper off to do that because it would be a hell lot easier ... and it's not hard, my little brother can do it
to take the bumper off,
1. pop the hood and remove the black plastic clicks running on top of the grill
2. remove the 8mm screws on the corners of the bumper (1 each on each side)
3. remove the 2 10mm bolts on the very bottom of the bumper
4. pull the bumper off
to install it, reverse all the steps

ic, I looked under the bumper there are 2 plastic clips or screws what ever you call them how do you take them off?
P.S. The whole car will get painted and I have to get a new bumper somewhere, and the whole car will get painted black pretty soon.
