APR CF Brake Duct + 5Axis kit install?
 
Just bought these ducts and I am wondering if there is a way to install them without taking the bumper off or the lip off.. Has anyone done this?

Yes. The APR Duct. You can do it without bumper removal.

Pull off the stock bezel (front turn signal). It simply pulls off and is held together by tabs.

Turn the wheel all the way to the right or left depending on which side that you are doing (to gain access)

Remove the plastic clips in front of the wheel. There should be a total of 4 on each side.

Pull the liner back.

Your APR bezel has two screws embedded in it. One slots into the stock hole. You have to drill another hole for the second one. It is held on by tabs at the edges and two nuts.

After you drill the hole, push it in firmly until it clips in. You will have to use force as it is a tight fit.

From the wheel well, screw the two nuts in. Not too tight as you could crack the CF.

I dont understand. Dosent the 5axis lip go around the bezel, not over it?

The very bottom tip goes over it.

Bumping the thread in 18 minutes won't help you find an answer faster.

Just take off the lip and bumper, took me 15 minutes too take it off. Not hard at all.

yes you have to take the lip off. yes it will come off in 15 minutes, and then just take another 2-3 hours to take off all the 3m adhesive from the lip and bumper, then re prep, re tape, and re install lip. in my opinion its just to much a pain in the ass. that's why I haven't done it yet. I also have the five axis kit.

Is the lip only tied on

jeffs42885 08-18-2013 11:11 PM

Taped. Jesus auto correct
