i just opened the box and when i pulled it out it was bent in weird ways and won't go back to its normal shape. is it supposed to be like this or can i fix it? or should i just return it? sorry im a newb

 

i think it is folded in half. you should call them

 

I got mine too last week, put it outside in the sun, but you are in PA, so I think there is not hot weather for you, it should go back to the original form. What I did, I put it on top of the car for one day and went back to the original form.... Also try putting it in the front bumper and force it there for a while.... another person will be very helpful...

 

Leave it out on a sunny day. It should return to its original shape.

 

put some heat on it...
they fold it up so its easier to pack...
it will go back to its orginal shape...just use some heat...here in PA we NEVER get any sun

 

I just laid mine out on the floor with some weight in the really bent areas and everything went back to normal.

 

lol use a hairdryer or something.

 

Geez, now i'm afraid of getting one from Stillen. Perhaps I should just get the AE lip from Nissan instead, less headache and less fussing iwth the shipping

 

It's not a big deal. Urethane will return to its original shape.

 

if i just lay it out will it eventually go back to its original position or do i need to add sum kind of heat? i probably won't be getting it painted till the spring anyways.

 

mount it on your car & leave it there for a few days... the heat & formation of the car will help it get back into shape.

 

its been snowing up here

 

what the best place 2 get the lip at? any1 can give me any link 2 stores or anything thanx

the part of the lip that is deformed is the bottom part of the lip. i don't think that putting it on the car will help that out but will heat make it go back to its normal position?>

 

Don't go there. They are terrible and second-rate to deal with. Try going straight to Stillen or do a search on Froogle. There are other places that sell Stillen products.

 

there was a group deal going on for the still aero parts...i doubt its still going on but whoever wants in can go and check. it was for a pretty good price too.

 

That's where I got my entire kit and did not have any problems.
