How To Install A Front Lip On Your Car. 

That works as well. I personally didn't use the tape because I take the lip off for winter. Alternatively you can also get a couple bolts in there as well. That will prevent lip from coming off for sure.

Even better to keep the double sided tape in there along with screws so its a nice snug fit.

True. I have since properly bolted the lip on the car. So it's not going anywhere.

​@@TurboKitchenif you look at Hopkins reply, he said to reply, he said remove the 3m tape after marking the holes. Then attach the spoiler with the screws.

Thanks! The plate definitely stands out doesn't it.

Thank You!

Thank you!

You're welcome.

Thanks!

Best car ever is a stretch but I do love my car. Thanks for the love!

lmao dude said best car ever

I've never had an issue with things ripping off at high speeds.

If they're just corner splitters, that changes the whole game with the aerodynamics. So I wouldn't be surprised if they would need some extra reinforcing. Solid advice regardless though, if you're not using nuts and bolts I would always suggest extra reinforcement.

Awesome. Happy to help!

Thanl you! They came on the car. I have a touring and haven't changed anything with the fogs. I believe you can buy this style though.

Thank you!

No. It's the 1.5L turbo

Yes I did. The screws run all along the front. They don't come through the middle at all.

Well I bought it from a friend, but it came from a shop called Racing Bees. racingbees.com/ You can shop in store or online

They have one for most cars on ebay

You're drilling just in the plaatxi bumper part. There is no downside to drilling other than cosmetics with the holes. But if you never remove the lip then you're ok

You will need to drill into the bumper.

Not if your car is low and then good luck getting the car back down with the lip on making the clearance even tighter.

For sure. I was going to borrow a friends ramps until I realized that would be dumb since I am lowered. It would have been interesting had I gone with it and filmed. Lol

@@TurboKitchen i really didnt think about that part...but now that you guys mention it..when i put my stock height civic on ramps to do the oil change...it did barely make it up and down it ..so having the lip would be a prob....im sure you could use wood pieces to supplement .but even then..a jack would be your best bet when you are lowered.

Yeah for sure. Jack or a lift if you have or have access

I've done 80mph and more and not had an issue. But I had alot of screws on it and currently have 6 bolts holding it on.

They are not necessary no. You can use rods if you wish but it's more for aesthetic look than actual functionality at that point. It won't hurt the lip to have a bit of extra support but as mentioned it is not necessary. Nobody wants to drill more holes then they need to into their car.

@@TurboKitchen definitely agreed, I'm old school and think the rods look kinda goofy unless it sticks out far and needs the support. Thank you! I appreciate your help!

@@vincevollmer1716 You're welcome. Happy to help!

It's actually for more structural integrity for downforce when at high speeds. But you really want to put the rods on the actual metal bumper behind the bumper cover. If you put it on the bumper cover, it will just in time, come out.

You can use tape but drilling is safer long term. Less likely to fall off of you scrape it. Also drilling is easier of you are gonna take it on and off. I take mine off for winter.

@@TurboKitchen the thing is mine is a OEM lip so it doesnt stick out. I guess ill check with double side tape first. So for the tape, do i just stick the tape from the one end to the another and stick it to the bumper? what do you suggest? Thanks in advance

Double sided tape has 2 sticky sides. Typically the top layer is covered so you would stick one side to the lip then peel off the backing and stick lip to the car. Make sure its lined up first. Which OEM lip do you have?

@@TurboKitchen its for Lexus LS430. OEM ones would be Toyota Celsior's so I got those.

Lmfaoooooo cant unsee it

Been using the self tappers for a few years now and has stayed on no problem. But I guess every car is different.

so what to use?

拓海哥之車CAM直擊 i would use dry wall anchors as an alternative to plain self tapping screws

@@bilokenneth I would recommend using: 10-32 x 3/4" Stainless Pan Phillips Machine Bolts 10-32 Stainless Nylon Insert Locking Nuts 1/4" x 3/4" Stainless Steel Fender Washers The reason I recomend these is due to the fact that self-taping screws can loosen over time. And by using the Nylon Locking Nuts, you can assure they won't come undone. Also, by using the Pan Phillips Machine Bolts, you are making sure you leave very minimul head room sticking out in the event you want to add a splitter down the road. If you use something with a big head on the end of it and install a splitter down the road, your splitter would be pressed up against all those heads, creating a gap. This way, that doesn't happen.

Yes. It's been lowered for a few years now.

Yes but it would be more likely to fall off. Plus if part comes off its hard to replace one section without taking whole lip off. With screws you can just replace or fix them quickly. It also depends where you live and how you use the car. I drive my car all year and through Canadian winter so I remove the lip to avoid ripping it off in snow.

Quarter inch self tapping screws. Any type would work. Can get them at any hardware store.

Turbo Kitchen Home Depot?

Yep home depot has them. That's where I got mine. You want 8x1 inch with quarter inch head

I'm not sure the brand but it is called the Civic CS style lip. Here is the link to the shop I got it from: racingbees.com/products/2016-2018-honda-civic-ap-modulo-style-front-bumper-lip?_pos=1&_sid=e7833653d&_ss=r

racingbees.com/products/2016-2018-honda-civic-ap-modulo-style-front-bumper-lip

I got it from a shop called Racing Bees. racingbees.com/

@@TurboKitchen ahh okok dunno bro

It's pretty common lip as well. I've seen it on other sites. Can also check your local shops. If they sell civic parts they would most likely have it in stock or be able to order for you. Racing Bees I believe will ship internationally but double check.

I have thought about it. I have some vinyl I could try.

I found a real nice lip on eBay for my 2016 civ. Came as a carbon fibre design. I was astonished the quality of stuff on eBay you can get for the civics.

That sucks! How was it secured?

I think most are universal cause I was looking that up myself

They are universal for all civic models except the type r. But if you get a type r style lip you can fit it with some light modification.

I used about 20

I just grabbed them quickly since they were right beside me. They work well enough since my driveway is fairly flat. It would stop the car from rolling back.

That is one of many correct lips for the car. Fitment was just fine. Ironically now I need a new one since this one got damaged. But I'll probably just get brand new of same style.

Well if someone has never jacked up a car before maybe they find it helpful. Last thing you want is a car falling on you.

Thanks. I just replaced it with a brand new one of the same kind.
