Default Got my GFX LIP + updated AWD pic, Thanks Sewell

Took my a while to install since I am a noob with DYI, but I managed to jam it in :P

The lip.



The stance, with 1" spacer on both rear wheels.



How it looks now.



My attempt at old school 50's style photo, but this girl said I look like a lonely boy waiting for his love... who ran away with Pedo Bear

Thanks guys, the clip is a pain in the butt. I still haven't figure that one out (I clamped it down from behind the bumper and pulled it out, and then hammer it back in lol) I hope I don't have to come in contact with one of those guys again.

Yeah Lil E, you missed out At least get the front lip

Mike, it looks good! The clips are easy to get off and on. There are 2 portions to it. The top and the base. You have to pull the top out and the whole clip will come out. To lock it back in place you have to put the whole clip in and push down on the top.

Thanks a lot VikH... I pull the entire clip out with the top from the bottom

And then I stuck the entire clip with the top back in through the bottom I dont think those things will work anymore after the way I man handled them
