front lip installation shop?
Hey Erbody,

Anyone have some recommendations where I could get a front lip (limited style) installed on my 06/07. I live in the Easy Bay (Lafayette/Walnut Creek).

I live in a condo and did it myself. If you have a parking space and 20 minutes there is no need to waste $50+ for someone to install 13 screws.

Maybe he don't want to install it himself. Sometimes things like this are left for vendors.

^^ seriously.. got ramps? or got a jack? just lift it up and screw it in. put some doublesided tape if u need help. or call a buddy and bribe w/ beer. no sense of wasting $$ to have a lip installed.

dont even really need tape or tools; just the bolts, washers, and nuts.

I used to install my lip and uninstall it while just laying down next to the front end of the car.

Has anyone replaced the screws that came with their lips with Torx instead?
