I just got this lip the other day and got it painted, however when I try to put it on it won't fit properly. However, it looks like it'll fit after I do some adjustments, but I was wondering if anyone that has done it has some tips. Thanks.

I have one on my car - but no big deal to install - I started with the centre bolt, making hand tight, then the end bolt on each side, then the corner bolts, then the rest.
Believe it or not, it costed me $167 shipped. Did you have a problem where one edge would fit properly but the other edge would stick out a little? I'm going to try to do what you did, maybe it'll work. The holes aren't even pre-drilled, haha. Would it be a good idea to be bending the lip inwards to make it fit? Thanks for your advice, I'll let you know how it goes!

That's a bargain - is it an original Aero Magic or a replica? Was it shipped from Japan or somewhere else? I may need to get me a nother one in the future at that price!

I didn't have this problem, and I'm surprised the holes are not pre-drilled! If you try like I said, you should be able to bend the lip as necessary after you hand tighten each bolt - just don't over do it!
Yeah, I was probably just putting it on wrong. I'm going to figure it out with my friend on Sunday. I bought it on Ebay... some guy was selling it dirt cheap and i immediately bought it. I think it's a replica since it's made of Fiberglass, but hey it's still a rare lip =)
I'll definetly try what you said and hopefully it'll come out well.
PS, anymore pictures of your car?? I would love to see how it looks on your car. =)
