Default ???front lip install???

i just ordered my RS1 carbon front lip and was wondering what people used to put it on? i was thinkin either self tapping screws or double sided tape...with the screws i dont really want to put holes in my new front lip and with tape would it hold? let me know...

and how long does racing solution usually take to ship, just curious, i live in maryland? cause i want it like tomorrow haha

use doublesided tape all along the bottom and use 2 screws on each side where it comes up to the fender well. oh yea and dont forget to wipe your bumper off real good with some alcohol or somethin where the tape is gonna be so itll stick real good.

i just put my RS1 carbon fiber lip on my car as well.... some post have mentioned this but ill go through it again.. what u should do is.. 1. clean off the dust and gunk off the front bumper... 2. buy 3m tape double side and go through where the lip will touch the bumper... and 3. after you apply it on the bumper when ur done peeling of the tape, drill the both end to ur bumper.. Thats really important to add the nuts because it will fly off if its just the double sided tape.. The 3m tape is really strong but against high wind pressure.. i don't think it would hold without the nuts.. however its ur call..
