I need to mount my stillen front lip tomorrow. Does anyone have any close up pics of the sides where they meet the fenders? I need to know how far up the fender to mount them. How did you guys mount them? I am going to put one screw on each fender and use double sided tape in the middle.
Thanks
Thanks

I was told use double sided tape on the entire thing..mount it up then use some self tapping screws on either side to secure it.
Ill be doing mine in a month or two

Here is a pic. It was mounted with double sided tape in the front and tapping screws for the sides. It's the Ionic Lip. If those aren't good enough I can snap some this afternoon and post.
I know exactly how to mount the lip, I just do not know know exactly WHERE to mount the god damn thing. I want this to look perfectly level and even on the beater. Exactly where on the fender of the beater should I mount the sides of the lip? Anyone have close up pics of their beater??

if you drill holes like i do, you guys can just take it off and on really easy , andwhenever you want. If you can post up pics how the STILLEN lip look like, then i'll see if you can do like i did.

Here some pics, i drill two holes on each side, when everytime i take it off i just unscrew it.



this is how my car look like w/ the lip only, i took the side and rear off.

Kingrukus, if you don't plan on taking it off, I would use rivets...the world is full of thieves that would love to know that all that is holding it in place is 2 screws and tape.

That true, but as i already told you, it take me 30 sec or even less just to take it off/put it bac on. So before go sleep, dun be lazy and take it out and put it in the garage. And i have coilovers, so i try to make it the most convenience as possible, so i can jack my car up easily since its low.Originally Posted by nupe500

I mounted mine like azn_s3nsation87. Into the back of the fender. I would use double sided on the front.

.......OK finding WHERE to mount it was easier than I thought. There is a grove in the lip that fits in the bottom groove of the fender, so you just need to feel for it. Lip is on and the beater looks awesome.

Thats a nice looking max but the duct tape is crazy!! The paint on the bumper must be jacked up now!
I have mine bolted on by two bolts only- no double sided tape- and its real sturdy!

how about taking off the lip and putting on something that will fit correctly.Originally Posted by azn_s3nsation87
Black Maxima, i think you should spray paint the duct tapes the same color as your car, so it wont stand out.

Fitment was right on, no issues. I was the test vehicle so we made sure that everything lined up perfectly. Jose @ Ionic did an incredible job with that lip and the fitment is great. I believe someone did have to do a little sanding bu it wasn't much.

Your crazy, do you think I actually drove around with that on? I was just test fitting it. It's a 97 lip and I have a 96 bumper.Black Maxima, i think you should spray paint the duct tapes the same color as your car, so it wont stand out.
