i got the apr and ya it was like one carbion fibber part that had no holes and i had to make them not fun looks ok but it was hard to line up the bars were cheap looking but it was cheap

k im mad because i ordered it from killertc.com because it was only 265 + shipping
and it took over three weeks to get in my hands

i will post pics before and after and well it was being done

but i have to see how to get pics off my phone

i used a dremel and everything turned out fine. it took a while to cut since the splitter is thick.

i dont think you need to its not covering the pan at all on mine i will take pics tonight but it will sit way better if you cut off eye hooks and cut it into a u-shape

my splitter is bigger on the left at this time but i plan to move it when i turbo

^^ recommended to remove the whole bumper or just jack it up...also if so did you screw it in or did it come with bolts...and these look real nice!

I LOVE my CF RS1 Lip Kit.
I just have to watch out for bumps and anything that stands more than a couple of inches off the ground though, since I am also dropped on Lowering Springs.
(...and the RS1 Lip Kit makes things even lower to the ground too.)
I would suggest it to anyone though! It's a great addition!
