whiteboy lip, cant get it on :-/
Sunday, August 06, 2006 6:13 PM






does it look too small to anyone else. i put one side on and tried to slide on the other side and it had a long way to go. it thought i was gonna snap it. does anyone with this lip know how to get it on without breaking it. or did anyone elses come like this?


also any ideas how to attach it?

If its glass, its probably going to have to be cut in half and have glass added to make it fit.

So am I, but if it doesn't fit now, that might be the only option.

no, just when i slide the one side on, the other side dont go over. maybe i have to put it straight on. idk i tried that though. i was hoping mike was around. he lives near me, and has it. ill try and find him via aim or something.

ok there is a little bit of a lip on the back edge of the bumper you have to trim that off, and the lip goes up over the stock bumpers bottom lip. youll see the where its supposed to set. if need be i can come down one day this week and help put it on, but you should be able to get it on with no trouble

thats the same thing w/ my stock rear bumper. once i get one side hook the other side is a bitch and i have to pull on it to get it on. my trd sides were like that too, they seemed too small but once i just put some effort into it, i got it to fit and it fit snug. just be patient with it and just work w/ it. it should fit

Take the fender liner out on the one side, im betting the extra slack will allow for it to fit the other side. Dont own the lip, just noticed that from the picture.

i wouldn't say the quality is horrible, just because you have no experience with this sort of thing doesn't make it horrible.
i thought the same about my rksport skirts, they did not fit
i had to cut them and make them fit, it seems that is the issue with lots of kits for our cars
so don't say its trash because you cannot make it work.

As I said in the other post, where are those pictures taken of on the lip? When I shipped the lip it was in perfect condition and I am not sure where these pictures are taken off? In addition, it looks like there was something yellow added to the lip because it was all white before shipping.

no offense, but it sounds like you're trying to make up bs.

first of all, what do you mean where are the pics taken of? either end by the wheel wells, and a side shot of the front of it. how can you not see that?

secondly, i don't know where you're seeing yellow. i've looked at those pics a couple times now and can't see any yellow what so ever on them. not sure why you're seeing anything other than just white.

do you have proof that it was fine before shipping? because when i got it, it was crappy. its gonna be a lot of work to get it on and looking good now. and what the hell did i have time to add on it and make it yellow? i picked it up and took it to my grandpas and thats whats there.


look at that pic for ex. its all weavy at top, and the hole has FG sticking off it.

brian, seriously if need help putting it on i am more than willing to come down and help get it on. i got mine and it seemed a little short until i trimmed the bumper a very tiny bit and it fit perfect.
