With all the $ these companys are making wouldn't it be nice if they'd include a diagram of how all your pieces go togeather? Kinda like what MotorDyne does when you buy one of his spacers. You read the instructions and you know exactly where everything goes and even what wrench and torq specs to use....and it's in english!

I had that lip... Line it up, clean the bumper real good, use 3m double side tape, then some self tappers on each side in the wheel well.
