Is there a front lip for BRZ that requires no drilling? (lines up pre-made holes)

[pancake]

Hello,

I'm looking for a cheap polyurethane lip for my BRZ that lines up with the stock holes at the bottom of the bumper - so no drilling is required.

I've got a '15 BRZ which has the pre-made holes that fit the STI lip dealer option. Is there a lip (replica or otherwise) that fits these holes with bolt/nut instead of drill screws so I don't need to drill more holes into the bumper?

thanks!

Is there a reason you dont just go with that factory option sti lip? That will be the best fitting one imo.

I have the bayson r front lip off ebay which was only around $60. The lip itself has holes to use with self tapping screws (so no drilling itself is required but it will create holes in the bottom of your front bumper)

This is odd, because the lip (when purchased new from a dealer) comes with specific instructions on where to drill holes.

It uses several of the larger holes in the bumper, but smaller mounting holes need to be drilled.

The 2016 BRZ Premium that we have in our shop needed holes drilled for mounting hardware.

Weird, when i look under my front bumper i see about 10 holes all along the front of it (about 3 inches from the tip) ... I thought these were for dealer front lip. Now I'm wondering what the purpose of them is..

There is always the possibility of the front bumper being drilled by the dealer for someone who wanted a lip, then the customer cancelling the order.

No, they all come with the holes. They are indeed for the OEM STi lip, but oddly still requires drilling or self taps.

There's only a total of 4 holes that are predrilled that are used on the STi front lip. Two are large holes in the left-middle and right-middle of the front lip, two are existing holes on the side at the very end of the lip for the metal L-bracket.

The rest (12x small bolts w/ rubber threaded inserts + 2x push rivets) all require you to drill additional holes.

I've done this lip install 3 times with genuine hardware. My 2013 Limited and the 2016 Premium car I've worked on all have the same configuration.
