Title: Ebay Lip
Post by: super425 on July 02, 2013, 12:00:47 PM
So I just bought the lip like 2 days ago, but they didnt come with any mounting hardware. I was thinking can i just custom mount that thing on or i have to you the hardware mount kit. If yet, anyone know where can i find that.

The mounting hardware can be purchased from Honda.  You might have trouble lining up the eBay lip with the holes on your bumper though.  Good luck!

Does the ebay lip even have the mounting holes predrilled?

If it's the fg rep like I have, no it does not. Mine does have indentations of the mounting holes from the mold but that's it. I only secured it on either end so that it has some movement and doesn't get too fucked up on steep driveways/ speed bumps.

Did you just mount the lip with screws? did you use double sided tape at all?

Holy thread resurrection!

Anyway, at first I used screws. Held fine. I then switched to those plastic hold downs usually used for plastic engine panels because the screws were rising from NE winters. No tape used at all.

FG rep lip looks pretty good!  Mr Cracker, did you originally attach the lip with screws inside the wheel well, where the front body piece screws in.? Or did you use the holes underneath, and later switch to the clips underneath?  I'm thinking about getting the lip if I can convince myself that I will be able to paint it Alabaster Silver at home with no issues.  I'm 50/50 on my decision right now.

Im debating on painting it myself. Theres a lot of diy paint jobs, online but they're all different. Still  trying to decipher which one to use.

I screwed into the wheel wells. Never attached it underneath. A total of four screws were all I needed.
