Default My GS-Fsport with the eBay lip, side wings cut off.

I added the eBay spoiler to my car. I had it professionally painted and installed. I had the lip painted a satin black. I had the side wings cut off, I didn't want to mess up the lines and profile of the car.

I think it's a nice touch to the aggressive front end without going overboard.

Did you cutoff a piece of the lip, I thought it curved over?

Did you have to drill into the bumper to mount it?

No, the installer used the factory screw holes and used longer screws or bolts. The holes were already there in the front lip to mount to the factory bottom tray. Nothing touches the stock bumper, everything is mounted to the factory bottom front under tray.
