Also what was the reason for u switching from replica lip to Vorsteiner lip, aren't they exactly the same at least as far as shape goes?
For the diffuser, did the rear bumper had to come off?
For the tips, how hard was to remove stock tips?
Badge looks great btw!
Thanks, Everything went on ok and fits 100%...Originally I wanted the Vorsteiner lip but wound up buying the OE front lip which was damaged during delivery, I took a chance and bought a lip from China which looked more aggressive but ended up being an $800 POS!(you live n learn) My buddy who does a lot of my work had a brand new Vorsteiner lip laying around so I had him throw it on for me

Rear diffuser doesn't need to be removed from all the DIY videos I've seen...tips were already welded on to my straight pipes

My best advice to anyone looking to do mods is buy top quality parts and don't be tempted by replicas...you get what you pay for
I tried to find DIY videos u mentioned about installing diffuser with no luck, do u mind posting the link. ty!
