PM ME!!!!!! lol i would share what ever info i recieve anyways so i heard it should work being that the RS1 is pretty much a just a lip kit, the APR splitter is made for the stock bumper but there should be no problem other then drilling into it which is on the bottom of the lip, even when you take it off it isn't visible, i'm leaning towards getting it now just gotta wait a little bit for the funds to come in, but i heard that there's someone istalling it on their Tc w/ the RS1 front so anyone please post pics anything will help

nah it was really easy... i drilled 2 holes on each side of the lip and one under each opening in the front... that was tricky! but it was pretty much a breeze... just a little time consuming... cause you have to take off the front bumper off with the lip still attached and sit it on the splitter where you want it positioned and then make your holes for the stabilizer bars then put the front bumper back on by it self... to re-attach the splash gaurds.... then put the front lip with the splitter attached back on... mine took ALOT longer to do cause i had to cut it and i didnt have the proper tools.... but other than that it was easy... specially by my self lol! anyways i like it.... but im sittin on 17's with tein s-techs (2.0 front 2.4 rear) so i havent scraped it YET! but it only ads like 1/4 inch or a tiny bit more to the front... so its not bad! anyways hope you enjoy it if you get it!

yeahh, but if you secure it on the bottom grille, it looks to be okay.

i think it would be nice looking....i've seen the APR splitter on the Kaminari kit and it was awesome, so it should work on the RS1
