Cavalier LS Lip install
Thursday, April 26, 2007 10:27 AM
Just wondering if some of you can give me some photos of your installs on your LS Lips for the 00-02 Cavalier bumpers. I picked up a few these past few weeks, I'm in the prepping stage as they're slightly different colours and/or damaged. And personally have never installed any of these in my life or anything like it lol My bumper does not have the tab slots also some of the tabs are missing on the front lip (all on rear however) so I've taken the rest of the tabs off the front one and plan on using the bolt holes instead.

I did search around on this forum for some info on LS Lip installs etc, didn't quite find the answers I was looking for, hence my question here ...

Here are some photos to also show what I have, and describe the one problem I've run into with the corner of the front lip. Any help on that and this would be greatly appreciated, thank you very much for your time.

Corner lip problem.

If you dont have tab slot on your bumper then you need to make or by new bumper with tab slot , also you need metal clip that you can only get from dealership , and cost alot for one.

matt - already have a way to put the lips on the car without the slots that works. Just need to find out the problem with the corner of the front lip as shown above in the photo. Because ironically enough that chunk missing is where the bolt/screw was to go into the fender wall... lol

just add plastic material there...

or if u dont want to go that route go to homey depot or something and see if u can find a sheet of plastic.. then cut it to shape and use a plastic epoxy to bond em together.
