My New CF Front Lip Install and Pics

Well as some of you know My front lip got busted by a 18 wheel busted tire when i was going down the interstate a few days ago (Link to that thread with pics) https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...-question.html

and i just got new CF front lip for (Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1)

Im very very happy with it

but do not, i repeat DO NOT USE THE SCREWS THAT COME WITH IT!! They are way to long and will crack your lip when u try to screw them in! Use your stock ones that came off of the OEM lip.

Here are the install pics:

Do not use these!! Use the small one that came off of your OEM bumper!

I dont know if its just the pictures youve taken but it seems like theres a big gap between the lip and bumper.

Pics look good except for the crooked pinky finger. And stay AHEAD of those 18wheelers next time!

Was that the total you paid including the shipping? If not how much was the shipping on top?

Answered my own question when I clicked the link! Thanks for the heads up!

Yeah don't use the screws they ship with the lip. I did and they came through the front of the lip. The company would not do anything for me. They said my installation was at fault, even though they shipped the incorrect length screws with the lip. Thats the kind of customer service you get when you buy from eBay.
