Hey guys i was wondering as to what needed to be done in order to install the stillen front lip thanks guyss

 

Best to go to the source - Stillen. Here's a link to their install instructions.

thanks man il prolly have my body shop take care of it. if they dont over charge me

 

No problem. Make sure the body shop does a pre-fit and sanding so that it fits more flush to your car. After they do all that you can seriously mount it yourself, it's pretty dang easy it just sticks on and you use a couple screws to hold it in.

 

any idea of around how much a shop might charge to paint and install. Im curious I mean I think a buddy of mine is goin to help me do the install. But im still leary and might just want to have it done professionally.

 

I'm going guess and say around $150 for the paint.

PLEASE DO NOT PAY ANYONE TO INSTALL THE LIP!!!

It's really easy and you'll regret paying for it while watching them install it. Trust me.

 

i paint mine for 100

 

Yeah you shouldn't pay more than $200 for the sanding/painting. If you go to a custom body shop they'll charge you more but they'll also fit the Stillen lip to your car perfectly and do lots of pre-fit/sanding. Up to you if you want to just paint it and slap it on, or have it look like a factory part of the car. I just painted and slapped mine on and I'll probably pull it off in a year or two and have it fitted much more flush. For now though it's good enough.

 

danielevans83 since i see u have the lowering kit on your car how much did they charge to install that? and are there any other parts i should have with the lowering kit IE like a sway bar or nah the lowering kit itself is fine? thanks i no off topic but it will help

 

My mechanic installed the eibach springs for 200. I got the strut and sway bar too and altogether the handling and ccornering improvements are significant. Loving it

 

Is it nice to fit only the front lip? or it would look ugly and incomplete?

 

I have just the front lip and I love it. I know people who have the side skirts as well and they definitely give it a more complete look but I've noticed (especially if you have the splash guards) that it still looks very nice with the stock side skirts as well. If you want to see a GREAT how-to on how to install the Stillen lip another member posted it here - http://forums.maxima.org/7th-generat...fit-issue.html

 

BlackMax where r u located?

 

this is gonna come in handy veeerrryy soon

 

How bad does it NOT look flush without sanding your bumper down? I really don't want to sand down my bumper. Let me know

 

nono, you don't sand your bumper. some shops will offer (for a higher price) to pre-fit and sand down the Stillen lip so its super flush fitment all around. most people don't do that though they just have it painted and stick it on, it looks great either way

 

Oh nice!! **phew!!**
