The material handles very much like the stuff the guys were doing to their cars using the garage seal stuff, except this is much more formed and geometricaly sound since it has a hollow core and three supports to make a triangle with a wide section of double sided tape on one side. Putting this on is simple. Clean the surface well just as you would when applying any decal or emblem, apply keeping in mind the line you want to maintain either exposed from under the spoiler or from the outside like I did with the stock lip.

Thanks for the question,
Scott

wouldn't this just get completely ripped to shreds the very first time you scrape it?

It is going to hold up better than the limited lip if you scraped it. The gasket was designed for the automotive industry. I have not had any problems with it tearing up when I bumped a curb. It cleaned up well and responded well to armoral.



If you send you front end through the grass because of a bad line, yes it could shred, but so did my chargespeed replica lip.

Thanks
Scott

Yes it will you will be installing it from the outside lower edge, taking about a half inch of clearance away from your front lip. This is the same technique I used on the 06 STI.

Thanks

Really interested in seeing what this would look like on the v-limited.

I have the v-limited but just want to see someone's first...

I may be interested. Stupid question --> DO you have to absolutely glue it or can you have some mounts in case you want to remove it easy?

Thanks.

Karr,

This lip is based off of dounles sided automotive tape. The lip can be removed easily much like you would remove emblems (uses the double-sided tape also).

Thanks for the questions,
Scott
