hey guys,

i just got a veilside front lip. i was messing with my own installation last night and decided to get a professional to do it for me.

does anyone know of a good shop that can do this. its two screws on each side and double sided tape. how much would it be. im in 626 by the way..

thanks guys

 

Just wondering why you could not install it yourself? I installed my own data lip held on my 2 screws on each side on the wheel weel and double sided tape. You can hit up PJ bonifacio which is down the street from vision autosport, 626-336-4595, or M1 autobody, 626-575-4835. Should only cost about 50.00 since it's relatively easy.

 

thanks for the info guys..

i didnt want to mess up drilling the holes in my wheel well. plus its a pain cause ill have to take off my wheel. just more trouble than its worth. the thing is huge, so i dont wanna mess anything up.

whats worse is i wont be able to get up my steep driveway without scarping the F UCk out of it. anyone with any suggestions...build me a ramp..??

HAHHAHAH...this is retardation..the things i do so my car looks a litte better..

 

yea just build a mini ramp or something

 

Hey man, I am the guy that sold you the lip. I thought it would have been installed by now. It should be fairly easy to install it. Any shop can do it for you or if you want to save money DIY. You don't have to remove the wheels. You just have to turn it all the way to give you the space you need to tap in the screws on each side. You don't even have to drill it. Just use a pointed self tapping screw and it should penetrate the plastic bumper. If you had came earlier last Saturday. I would have helped you install it. Good luck getting up on your driveway though. I liked the lip a lot but unfortunately it was sitting too low for my taste.

 

wassup man,

me and my friend jeff went back to his place and decided to give it a try. went to homedept without looking carefully at the size of the screws..went back again to get the right size. we were about to drill then i was like..hold on...maybe we should rethink this....i remember when i helped him put on his veilside lip....what a comedy of errors..

i figure that the lip is going to take a beating so might as well get it done right instead of us two jimmy rigging it on...i saw an image of my lip falling off from smashing it on my driveway flash before my eyes right when we were about to drill...

 

Hope everything works out man. Post some pictures once it is done. The lip looks very nice but needs a lot of care driving it around that low. Peace!

 

so i test fit it again...and tried to go up and down my driveway..

by jebus...i can do it!

i have to go at a super angle and super slow...HAHHAHA

it should be on very soon..i think im still going to get some baords , just in case

 

the veilside lip adds alot to the front. does it look unbalanced at all? post pics if you can, im curious!

btw im coming back this thursday, cant wait... gggg35555

 

This is what it looked like when I test fit it before selling it.

 

let me post some pixs of the lip from the original owner

 

heres one shot

 

and another...i use to think the "fins" look wierd but they are growing on me now.

i love the way this lip looks. it doesnt seem like too many people have it. i was thinking about getting the data systems lip but now that i think about it...it looks way too plain for my taste..

again..only downside is that its WAY too low..ohh well..
no guts no glory..hahahah
