Anyone have the HT Auto Lip for the FRS? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Can anyone take pictures of the fitment and drill hole locations for the HT Auto lip for the FRS? I just bought one and put it against my car and it looks off for some reason. Thanks!

You may need to put some heat on it and shape it a lil. Especially if you live somewhere colder. Im in ny I have one and fits almost perfect slightly off here n there but I love it. I got caught on a curb yesterday deformed it a lil but once I put a lil heat and play with it I was good.

It comes with four clips . What I did was put one clip on each side and took a pen and mark the holes . (Lip has holes ? Kinda gave me a idea of where to drill. I'll try and get some pictures to you 2morro

Thanks. Yeah I'm about to install a it tomorrow and it seems that the drill points are too towards the front of the bumper, rather than under the car.

The front ones I have to say are a lil forward .but once you get the fitment right it'll be Ok.

If you were to remove the lip, will the holes be noticeable or will the bumper look messed up?

If you notice the left side fits a lil off compare to the right. But no one notices except me.

Yea you'll prob see it. This is my 2nd lip I destroyed the first one drifting . And the fronts were noticeable. But if you don't secure the front it gets a belly and you see a space. I tried to avoid the drilling on my first but ended up having too. But now I'm so use to the lip I hate how it looks without it so I'm not worried. U may wanna try some type.of double sided tape.

Thanks! Yeah I am kind of reluctant to install it cause I'm scared that it will ruin the bumper. Also the kit came with 21 screws. I haven't checked how much you really need, but thats seems like a lot! Ahaha.

chriscross_tnt · 12-30-2013, 12:59 AM

Yea idt I used all. The fronts screws are a lil pain to install cause the lips angle. When you install it you'll love it though. Theres a thread started for this lip already look for it. I believe there's used tape.

So you used all of the screws? And thanks again, I just really don't want to screw up my bumper. Aha

I used all the screws, and wasn't crazy about the fitment, especially considering the cost.

How was the fitment for you? And what did you do about it, and do you still have it on?

sirsol66 · 12-30-2013, 10:28 AM

The two parts that are suppose to match up with the "fangs" on the bumper were not wide enough, so one side was always off. I got over it..but for close to $300, I expected better.

Mines off for winter, will be back on for spring.

I love mine !! I actually put mine on with self tapping screws because I didn't want to take the plate off from under the car or the PITA nuts bolts and washers from behind the bumper.. it was a very odd angle they went in at .. Also plasti dipped . As far as fitment I felt like it was pretty good, I also had to heat it up a bit due to the cold weather . I had to have a friend pull slightly from the middle to get the center lined up
