[greg1174]

Yeah, I posted after pics on my lip question thing....but I really didn't get any responses........

I figured it was because it was posted in the wrong area.....

Are you planning on sticking with those rims? I dont really like them but hey, its just my opinion.

Despite those rims, everything is coo.

Greg, nice pics.
Question, I have the same lip kit and wondering if you had any problems installing it? Did you just use the selp tapping screws up front? How did you secure the rear lip? Thanks. I could use the advice.

Your ride looks dope, but the pics arent the greatest! Good work!

Thank you, I actually used stainless steel screws on both sides, and on the under side (the part that over laps) I put industrial use indoor/outdoor 3M doublesided sticky tape, and it has kept it on pretty good, I just drove from Jacksonville to Chicago without any problems.

Oh, although this is being ghetto, the rear lip doesn't appear that it would stay up by itself, however, my exhaust is far enough out that the lip rests on it, the lip itself is maid from fiberglass so I don't have any problems with melting or anything.....

 

[96greencivic]

Thanks for the info. That is what I figured for the front bumper, but I heard some people used some sort of shims for the rear. I have the ABS lips, so I would have to worry about melting. If anyone has any advice, let me know.

Try using the tape on the rear, not sure if that would help but its worth a try.

 

[greg1174]

I don't believe it is "tapeable" <----if that is even a word, since the 96-98 models bumpers didn't have the outward curve from them there really isn't much to hold on the rear lip....I am still trying to figure out a way to make the damn thing get off the exhaust.

I do believe that you could put "fasteners" under the lip and on the rear bumper that would enable a temp fix, but who knows....

 

[96greencivic]

yeah i got a lot of hardware in the kit, but I haven't had time to figure it out.
