    This is just a try, worked on my friends car.

    1st.

    -Cut out that middle top piece, than get some M3 double sided tape. Clean the bumper and lip very good. Than apply the double tape on the back side of the lip. After you do that , tape the lip to teh bumper w/ regular shop tape, so It can have some pressure applying (sp) to the lip and making it stick better to the bumper.

    if you could i would put the top screws back in and it would pull back up or was it still not fitting correctly and if you want it molded in i would cut the top flange off and find someone that can plastic weld and weld the lip to the bumper if i had the iron i could do it but i have not been able to find one around my area but if i find one i will let you know and i will be able to do it for you

    Kashim... call me and we'll get it worked out... I'm a lip pro... 706.296.2991

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
