Does anyone know how to install this kit. I've searched and came up with nothing . What i was really wondering was if the front bumper had to be cut in any way.
Thanks in advance.

only recent pics i've got with the lip on it are on my computer and i'm at work. i'll try to remember to post them up tonight for you. i actually got mine off ebay, but you can get it from racing solutions and some other palces. there's a bunch of sponsored sellers on here who sell it.
yup.. its a really easy install.
As stated all ABS tells you to do is use 4 total screws, 2 on each side inside the whee well.
However for extra strength, i placed double sided tape underneath the entire lip where it would touch the bumper, and i used two extra screws near the bottom grille towards the outer edges. Never had a problem once.
However, this time im going to use rivets when i get my lip.. that way it will stay of forever, and nobody can steal it.

your probably going to have to trim your lip a little, otherwise the stock grille doesnt fit perfectly.
however, because you are paying alot for a grille, your going to want to make sure it fits with no problems.. your best bet, trim it about a half inch or so..
