Attaching the Stillen front lip.

I read through William Gay's write up on installing the Ionic body kit, but that was for the side skirts and rear. I believe that is fiberglass, I have the polyurethane lip and wanted to know how to permenantly attach it. Double sided tape is nice but my confidence does not lie within it's strength.

Nuts, Bolts, screws? What do I use and where?

I'd do a search but I haven't donated yet.


Thanks all.

I dont personally have a stillen kit but my buddy had one on his Max and he attached the front lip with some 3M two faced tape. I remember when we were removing it, honestly we both were pulling like a mother just to get that thing off. Get the 3M stuff and you will be good to go!!!

i dont know about the aero kit but i would assume some rivots would do the trick.

rivots can hold it but if u are not carful on where u put them, u can actuall make a hole in the peice. i just found this out by doing this on a vw beetle fender. now there is a circle where the rivet is cause i used too much pressure.
