    Default Installing SS Lip

    Hey guys, general question..

    I have the SS lip that came factory off MY car, however after some front end damage it came off..

    I have had the lip temporarily mounted with the two screws that sit right near the wheel arch, and cable tied onto the front bar, to test fit to my new front bar.

    Whats the best mounting option.. glue/screw etc?

    cheers.

    theres screw points in the front lip that match up to the front of the VP bar, the idea is to tighten the screws gradually so the lip sits flush

    if its a genuine holden bar, on the inside there are little limps about 1 mm circle of plastic, they are the marks for where you drill the holes for the screws to go through you will need to look hard for them. dont glue it on, or it will never come off again. than seem sealer between the gap of the bar and lip, it will give you a more flush look.
    If you're not driving a manual, you are only steering, not driving

    Yeah complete genuine, just it was unremoved... against my will, lets just say that.

    I do recall those tiny holes!

    cheers for the heads up
