2 part front lip doesnt join together well
So i purchased a gloss back front lip on amazon and its one of the ones that the base has 2 parts that join together. The join is terrible and doesnt even fit together very well so the bottom of the spoiler wouldnt be flush.
Will be sending this one back but are all the lips where the base comes in 2 parts like this? looking on ebay i see some that look to be one piece so will go with that if thats the case, i'm a little bit OCD about these things and dont want a visible line in the middle where the parts dont join well . Also does anyone know what size self tapping screws i'll need to fit? no hardware store near me so would be easier to order them in advance. |

I replaced my front lower tip spoiler with a two piece one on eBay, I picked one that has some discreet extra securing points. The fit was alright, I used masking tape to line it up temporarily.
I used a combination of double sided foam tape and self tappers that came with the kit. It feels secure, I think it will last until the first floor or snow that I drive through, like the last one.

Trust me i went through 4 different front lip and strongly against the 2-3pieces version
It's alot cheaper but you are paying for what you like...the 2pcs version is definitely an eyesore |

Looking at it i assume it would be easier to put the 2 covers on with tape, and then line up the bottom piece and start attatching screws? |
