installing a front lip?
Okay so i just installed a prodrive lip on my wrx but it still sags down. I tried putting double-sided tape but it's not staying up. Does anyone have any advice or trick to making this lip stay up on my car? thanks!

I use nylon rivets in the front to help the d-s tape. The tape alone will not hold in the middle it needs support by either screws or nylon rivets.
