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.

brian

no cutting, i have an rs1 lip in cf. all you need to do it line it up and drill 2 holes on each side to mount them in the wheel wells, easiest install ever.

briannn...post some pics bro. im looking into that cf lip. Where did u buy it from?

brian

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.

not to get off the install topic, but where are you guys getting the lip kits from?

JQ

what if you need to remove your bumper? Will you have to remove the front lip again?

tC9o9

no.. the lip attaches to the bumper so when you take off your bumper.. so does the lip, no need for reinstallation or anything.

B1uEsC1uEs

cool thanks.

one more question:

I'm deciding to buy the grillcraft mesh grill, will it be hard to take the stock lower grill to put in the new grill once I have the lip on?

tC9o9

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..

B1uEsC1uEs

ouch, imma have it professionally installed for sure so they can deal with all that.

I have the FigureLLC grilles from ebay and they are awesome, fit fine with my RS1 lip kit in CF. Cheaper than grillcraft too.

another example of the figure grille and the rs1 kit

B1uEsC1uEs

so you guys just put on those grills with the RS1 front lip without any extra work as in trimming, cutting, etc?

KJ_Scion

Yes
