do you still need pics of where to drill the screws?
are you saying that when you install it, you have to push the bottom of the lip all the way up till it is touching the bumper? Your CF lip looks amazing by the way! I want CF so bad, but I know I will break it.....
Yup, that's what I had to do. Then drill a small hole in the lip and hand screw in some plastic screws.
I thought you didn't have to drill when putting this on? It was just screws that go into the bumper + 3m tape.

The lip comes w/ 4 screws w/ 4 washers, and 2 metal brackets. Not that much instructions on how to install the brackets so I didn't use them. I installed mine by using 3M double sided tape and 4 nuts and bolts. Drill the whole into the lip and bumper and fender liner I think.... get under your car open the two panels and the left and right, stick in the bolt from the outside and screw the nut from the inside. I took precautions, because I customized and had my lip professionally painted. My first lip was destroyed on the freeway when it lost against a wooden pallet.

That's even worse - don't you know carbon fiber is lightweight material? besides either way the shipping prices on ebay are purposely inflated
