    Best way to stop your front lip from falling off.

    yo - my front lip/spoiler or whatever the lingo is... keeps commin off, whats the best way to keep it there without using 600 zip-ties?



    any help would be great.

    and yep my VR6 is lowered and yep im mega careful when parking and goin over bumps, thats kinda obvious.

    i just use 1 zippy in the middle and 1 on each of the sides.
    you could probably use like a silicone type glue maybe?

    yep, next step for me was to go under the car drill some holes and throw on some large washers and screw it on.

    i was posting to see what methods you guys use...

    yeah i tried that, found that the vibrations ended up unscrewing the screws,
    also, cable tie the two pieces together, can never had enough protection

    I prefer to leave them unsecured. Best to rip your spoiler off than rip your bumper off because your lip is secured nicely.

    yep 2 zip-ties that go through the mounting holes in the front section has worked and does not look tooo shabby.

    it normally would bust open at the front and start skidding along the ground, however now its staying on yay!

    thanks for your comments.
