Hey guys, I've got a question about going from one front lip to another. Currently I have the Stillen splitter installed (been there for about 8 months). I also have a clear bra. If I ever wanted to switch lips in the future, would it just leave a huge mess on my front fascia after removing the splitter? Specifically I'm looking into the Top Secret CF lip. It doesn't look like it would cover any of the surface area that the Stillen lip does, aside from the edge of the wheel wells and bottom of the front. I'd imagine there would be residue from the 3M tape all over the clear bra and surely some marks left behind from the splitter itself, not to mention the holes drilled which may not be of any use to the next lip I get. I also wonder if pulling off the lip would actually damage the clear bra altogether. Would a professional be able to work with this and install a different lip, and also would they be able to clean up the front end as if the splitter was never on there? Any insight would be appreciated, thank you!
