Thinking about that too! $130 vs $600!

If you're referring to my car, it's still stock.

How did you mount the front lip? 3M tape only or screws? It looks like there is a gap between the bumper and the lip towards the center of the bumper.

I originally tried to just 3M tape it, but it wouldn't hold, so I had to get it bolted on. Which area are you talking about when you say the center of the bumper?

For anyone wondering how it looks on Nebula Grey:

I actually painted it semi-gloss black and had to get my exhaust tips pulled out so they didn't look too far in. I would also suggest heating it with a heat gun while double taping the top because the plastic is hard to form to the bumper. All in all 7/10. Thanks to jkhang714 for the sale.

Where and how did you mount the screws? Do you use the existing factory holes on the bumper?if not When i uninstall the front lip, will there be screw holes undernear the bumper and fender well?

I got it done at my friend's shop. You have to get new holes drilled, 2 on the bottom and one in the back, per splitter. So yes, when you remove it there will be holes that you will need to fill up.

My splitter just arrived. Not sure if I like it. Car is currently getting tint so I have yet to size it up. Material seems a bit "rough". May think about painting it.
