Default Installing OEM front lip MY04

My OEM front lip should get here from hardtopguy on Tuesday. I haven't seen the instructions yet but I was wondering if there were any difficulties or tricky bits that I should be aware of before I begin. Or any oddball tools I might need.
Thanks!
Mike

PS.. I tried but Search was locking up on me

I'm on the same boat, but order the MasterGrade CF lip. The lip comes with screws and nuts, but do I need to use on type of double sided tape or anything? Any suggestions guys?

should be a straight forward install considering they have an instruction sheet that comes with it....I installed mine in an hour no problem well could of been faster but I like to be cautious and I was working at the same time also the oem lip comes with the 3m double sided tape already on the lip so I don't know if the mastergrade one does......

Thanks Rio, Sounds pretty straightfoward. Anybody out there have any PROBLEMS putting theirs on? anything to be avoided? (or maybe they are just so rare that nobody else on S2KI has one?? )
Thanks,
Mike

It's very easy to install. The lip is form fitting in that when you place it on the bump it actually grabs/hugs the bumper and holds itself in place. Just take your time with the double stick tape and you should be fine.

The Mastergrade one you will not have tape and you will not have the edge molding that comes with the OEM lip. Fitment is not as good.

04RioS2k: can you post a picture of the back of your lip when it comes in so I can duplicate the double sided tape part and if possible post the instructions?

thanks

any1 that has installed the mastergrade CF lip, any suggestions>?

My friend and I installed an 02. It is a two man job though. You know, just to hold it in place.
