Very nice. Did the exact same today for the front lip fitment solution. Down side is that I will need to paint after the fact.

Looks great! Would you mind posting some photos of the mounting points on the side skirt?

I am planning to do RocketBunny sometime in the future, so the front bumper is whatever for me. But yeah, I agree will need some touch up paint.

Does anyone have issue with 3m tape?
I had to use double layer on passenger side for the tape to be touched to the body and triple layer for the driver side.
After I did that, it is now solid without any gap or fitment issue.

Im happy now except the fact that I spent a lot of money on 3m tapes.

Yeah this is normal, for those that didn't, I would suggest they had issues with the skirt lifting after a short time.

Yeah I doubled the amount of 3M on my first attempt only to realize I was not making enough contact, so putting on a second layer that was flush with the weather strip was the ticket. I think this is why some guys left the weather strip off completely, not enough 3M

I ended up buying some 3M tape that is a little more than double the width of the crap the kit came with. It's sticking great, the extra surface area helps a lot.

HI,


How much further lower by EZ-Lip (width of the EZ-Lip)?


How's the adhesion of the EZ-Lip?
(I saw other product link point out some problem with EZ-Lip and bring
my concern.)
