Well after seeing a few threads on people doing this I figured I'd give it a shot, plus I was pretty bored yesterday lol. I'm actually pretty impressed with how it came out, looks almost like it came from the factory that way. After I put it on I noticed it was kinda grayish so I hit it with a few coats of black plasti-dip and this is how it came out:

If anyone is looking for a cheap alternative for a front lip spoiler this is definitely the way to go

It's easy peasy.

I did mine when I had to remove the bumper to get at the headlights.

Mine has lasted for years and has seen quite a bit of driveway/speedbump rubbing. LOL

as posted by Jackalope in another thread

I'm not to sure what the specs on the rims are other than their 16in BBS's and the tires are 205/45/16. I also have a 1.9in drop f/r

Mine turned out pretty good.
I recently hit one of those concrete dividers in a parking lot and my rubber lip actually saved my bumper from being all scratched up. But now it's all hanging off and looks really bad, i'll have to redo it somehow.

I believe its the wing you can order from MicroImage. It's not a finished wing - you must finish, paint, and install it of course.

3M tape will do the job. However, for the ultimate install, check out thread by derickveliz2

Yup, like I suggested to Derick, use self tapping screws and washers. Mine has held up for a few years now even with crazy speed bumps, crazy driveways, and unavoidable road kill.
