Its really straight forward. Just add a couple of screws in the wheel wells and use the elbow brackets in the middle of the lip and screw into the underside of the bumper.

It makes no real difference. As long as you use enough double sided tape/screws it will be fine.

[cruzincivic]

good idea i might get the misses hair dryer on it this weekend if i could be bothered...

nothing is ever easy

[RtN]

lol i'm pretty sure they should fit ok.. coz most ppl have replicas I think they seem fine.

[cruzincivic]

it would look unreal on the car if i can get the fu*kn thing on hahahahaha

i was so frustrated... and the misses in my ear laughing at me did not help either..

[RtN]

dunno abt mugen one but my CTR style one the bottom is screwed onto bumper and the sides are also screwed onto the bumper. I think the top of mugen lip sits on top of the lower part of the bumper tho so I guess you could double side tape that.

[MWAKU]

lmfao

get 2 guys to help you man

take off front bumper, get ur mates to hold it up and line it up and u screw it in. and it won't be an easy fit, so ur going to have to hold it firm.

[cruzincivic]

sweet as

i will have to do it next month now but all is good..

cheers for the help guys

[RtN]

I used vice grips for mine =]

[cruzincivic]

but still 50mm off thats a lot of lip to stretch...

the pre facelift is so much easier as u just use the bolt holes under the bar take about 2min to place on...

i was there for 2hrs and got no where with the new one...
it can sit in the garage till i can be botherd to give it ago...

waht i did after stretching it with my frend

[B16bcivic]

maybe u have fitted it on but for further people who needs help, all i did was shave off a few mms of the side of the bumper to the lips fitment and just used 2 screw on the side and 2 on the front. worked perfect for me.
