How to on USDM Mugen lip

[civictype_r04]

I need a how to to installing the mugen carbon fiber front lip. Like where to cut the holes.

[Mugen Dom]

Its kinda trial and error...you should trace with some grease pencil where the lip goes and then figure where the ducting goes and start cutting...it takes a lot of trial and error though nothing exact

[Sucka]

Start from the buttom up. Start with small holes first and work out wards.

Ok I just with there were pics that I could go off of.

[Mugen Dom]

Bud thats not a sentence....dont know what you mean there.

[civictype_r04]

My bad I ment I just wish there was a pic that I could use to go off of.

[Mugen Dom]

AHHH that was supposed to be WISH not WITH...yeh I never took pics when I did it...its really trial and error as long as you dont cut to high it wont be a problem as its all covered...your holes will be pretty large

Well I will probably be getting mine back from paint today. Got it painted for $50!!! side job at my dealership! But yeah I have no idea what hardware to use for this and what to do with that bracket piece... There really should be a howto on this, if mine comes out well I may have to make one myself.

Ok so I am going to attempt this tomorrow finally. I am wondering what would be the best hardware to use where the lip wraps around the bumper like where it goes into the wheel well. Self tapping screws? (this is what the hfp lip kit instructions recommend.) or would bolts and nuts be better. Someone who installed one should chime in, plz!! lol

[jerrymouas]

anybody know, or have done this before?? If after you cut the hole into the bumper for the mugen lip can you later on to switch back to the type r lip and not have the hole showing. Or do have to get a new front bumper. jw...
