Hey, you are the guy that PM'd me asking me how Karma is working out for me.


I still have no idea what you were talking about and it was kind of weird.

agree. no one needs to repost the pics they already posted in 100 other "front lip" threads.

no i literally just got it and tried to test fit and its off how is your fitment? lol also when you installed it did you use all the screws they supplied? kinda dont want that many holes in the bumper rather do double sided tape and screw in 2 mids and 2 ends for support

I actually that eBay lip (very similar, probably made in the same place) on a different car; I have an authentic Aimgain. A local 3is I know has the exact one purchased though, read the directions it came with; it mentions how to heat it.

you could try the double sided tape, I've used it on OEM f sport front lip on my non f sport 2is. It held together great, never drooped. b

Yes, I did. That person mentioned heating the lip for installation, which means its probably the urethane replica. What I'm referring to is the carbon fiber replica.
