MY 3 piece CF front lip only came with two screws and three bolts. How is everyone installing these?

and as far as the DTRL. I know I have to drill a hole and screw in one end of the DRL into the bumper but how is everyone mounting the other end. all it has is a threaded bolt sticking out?. Was I not shipped something important I needed to complete this install? thanks

They recommend using body silicone. I used two 5/16 bolts on both sections of the sides for the front lip, the center is a royal pain in the ***, have to mark where you want it, then you use the crush bolts in the center piece, and drill through the sides to mount them together.

Can you install the side front lip and the center without actually take off the front bumper?

I did, just remove the under shroud. Center is a royal pain in the *** IMO, maybe I didn't get the trick, but I think it could have been better thought out. No markings to drill so it's a trial and error process.

So you didn't use silicone?

Is anyone else still waiting on their package?

The lip actually doesn't fit 100% flush with the bumper. Pretty close

How did manage to hold it in place while screwing those in?
You only used two bolts on the whole lip?

Did you install the lip with the bumper off or on?

Thanks

Two per side, same with the side blades. Drilled holes in the lip first, then held against the bumper and marked the bumper to drill. Mine fits flush this way.

What tools did you use for the crush bolts? Is it Astro 1442? It could not be found for pick up at Sears or Home Depot.

How many crush bolt did you use to secure the center lip with the small triangle piece?
