Any basic instructions for install? (I have the small bag of bolts...)
The lip is installed from underneath the front bumper. You will use nuts and bolts to mount the lip on.

Uh yeah.... kind of figured that. I'll be more specific. Is the intent that the supplied nuts and bolts are to replace 4 OEM fasteners (i.e., use same holes) or is the intent to drill four hours using the holes in the lip as a template?

You will have to drill a few holes from underneath the bumper to mount the lip securely with the nuts & bolts.

What exactly is the point of having a lip be more flexible? I would think at high speeds that would be worse or something.

Nope, Most OEM/factory lip are made from polyurethane.

Customers want a flexible lip so it's more durable when scraping the ground from going up street ramps/parking lots.

I haven't gotten mine installed yet... probably not until next week... but I can tell you that I didn't get this to help with high speed aero... it's all about "the look" -- yeah... I know.. Shallow Hal :-)

The response I got was the same as the price on the web site. We missed the special pricing offered to the guy that asked on the first page. I guess that pricing was only good for a few days.
