I actually had a question about the RS1 also...

How much does a lipkit like this run to have painted? Ballpark numbers would be dandy ;].

You can get the grill on with the RS1 Lip Kit.,.its just a pain in the a$$

And Offence Bob..but I personally wouldnt recommend getting it trimmed..bc the reason it comes going under the grill is so it will have a more flush look..by trimminig it..u can easily see the line before the grill..idk thats just me..but it is possible...what i did was take off the bottom screen of the grill...and push the slit through..and drill through the lip and body...not only giving it more strength for the lip to hold..but also keeping the flsuh look

They are just 2 screws...the side skirt has 1 on each side and then the same for the rear...but recently i had to move my rear up bc i didnt know about clamp mod that would lower ur exhaust..so i ended up screwing on the bottom of the rear bc there are holes there...just to make it a bit more sturdy

like ..alright...the bottom grill picture a rectangle..now think about this...u screw two screws in the top of it...and one in the bottom...sturdy and nice and fit.....now the lip...in the middle of the lip where the bottom grill is..the peice goes all the way back..under the grill...thereofre ...u have to take out that bottom bolt from the gril...only thing it..the grill fits so perfectly that even the 1/10 on a inch thickness of that lipkit peice..wont get through..

thats what ur up for..
