went to metro infiniti in socal today to get serviced... asked the guy how much to install a front lip for the coupe- he said $200. Considering that I bought the thing for 300 from grubbs, i find that pretty ridiculous.

anyone here installed one before? is it hard? The idea of drilling holes into my baby's chin myself just doesn't sound appealing to me.

 

2 bills you should have asked him if he want you to bend over as well

ROFL! seriously, that is just insane. A good color-matching shop would charge you $200 to paint and install a full BUMPER. Just to get on a full lip shouldn't cost more than $50.

 

man tell metro infiniti to kiss me ****. 2 bills is major rip off. if i were you, i take it to local colision speciallist and let them install it. Should cost you no more than 1 bills. the work, i think require no more than an hour worth.

yeah i was seriously pretty shocked (service guy gave me some bullshit about how difficult it is to install and that the "techs say a lot of bad words while installing it because it gets frustrating"... whatever the blue fock that means...) i may just DIY it, but just want to know what's involved...

 

i order my lip spoiler from japan. i didn't like the idea of drilling the hole on my baby. but i went ahead and do it. it wasn't that difficult either.

something like the front lip, i don't think it will require a lot of skill to install it. not like you putting clutch together or something.

please post the picture. just that the more i see, the more i am convince to get it...heheheh My car is lower and i am afraid i might destroy it if i install it. i keep scraping my car right now.

Hybrid25,

I installed mine last May and it took me about 2.5 hours. Half of that was spent making sure that the template is on the right spot. You need a lift or jack the front of the car so you'll have better access. Make sure that the template's alignment is correct before you start drilling. I put the template on a double adhesive laminate sheet -this way you can lay and peel the template as desired. Always double or triple-check your measurements before drilling and goodluck.
