For a stick on kit... Not trying to be that guy, but do you have someone to flush for you too?

OP, there are a few threads around on this. There is also a link to the authentic install in there somewhere.

it is pretty much straight forward and just bolt on... no need for instruction.

All you have to make sure is to double or triple layer 3m tape by stack them together. One single layer is not thick enough to touch the surface.

Edit: Above applies to side skirts and rear spats. NOT front lip.

don't use the 3m tape idc how strong that tape is if it comes off on the highway your gonna run over it and the debris might get somebody else in an accident I'm about to buy the bayson r, if it come with screws, screw that mofo in lol

It will never come off because kit has some hardwares to screw on. 3m tape must be used on side skirt and rear spat. Otherwise it will never sit right and there are more chances for parts to fall. You may not know what body kit we are talking about, but I know because I own same kit and installed it. Reason why I said double or triple layer of 3m tape is because single layer of 3m is not thick enough to make contact for both side. Its been discussed with some of members about same issue with same kit.

so i ordered the lip, but not the skirts and rear things yet, so we shouldn't screw it in? i need figure this out before it gets here

Front lip, I screw it and tape it. Dont use tape alone for front lip.

I got it in the mail yesterday and i know they say put it out in the sun so it can take its original shape, but all that does is make it flexible, so do i warp it up with a heat gun or blow dryer and then bolt it in? I have to force the urethane to take shape on the bumper? Idk

Did you ever figure this out? I'm looking to install my lip soon but it's all janky. Heat gun didn't make it take a better shape.
