    Got my new go pro since I lost mine at Clean Culture. Unfortunately I didn’t notice and recorded this whole video in 4:3 instead of 16:9. So it might look weird on some devices. Forgive me I’m new lol.

    Youve inspired me to show my 6.5 to the youtube world! I've been working on it for 2 year and its time I get serious!

    Wow . You did it the hard way but best way. I crawled under the front bumper , lined it up., marked it , drilled and screwd it in with non - corossive screws ..and it came out perfectly. But that was with a bit of luck .

      Lucky. Yeah I would have done it that way... the only issue I had with that was... the car was way to low

    Looks sick dude! Ive had this exact lip sitting in my amazon cart for a couple months now and wasnt sure if I was gonna buy it or not bc i couldn't find any reviews or how it looked but im for sure getting it now. Also I peeped the Trans Am in the garage 👀🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

      Thank you, also it’s the ...👀 6.6L V8, if you know Smokey and the bandit. It’s like the same one. Glad my video was helpful. I have other mods on my channel if you want to check it out. I’m getting another diffuser and new side skirts next

    I have the same lip for my Jetta. I glued my 3-pieces together with a good clear dry adhesive and did not use the standard screws it came with. Used nuts and bolts so I know 100% that the lip isn’t going to fly off my bumper. But I didn’t have to take off my whole bumper, I just jacked it up all the way, and used Jack stands. 🤙

    • @DrivenByChris
      @DrivenByChris  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for that. I will probably do that next time. I know for sure, this wont be the last time I install this lip.... I'm sure I'll destroy it driving and get another one. I'll probably glue it all together then install it

      @drewwilliams4730 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      How did you add the nuts on the inside of the bumper without taking it off? Did you have to remove the splash shield or just get your arm in above it? I’m thinking of using nuts and bolts when I install mine I just didn’t know if you could get behind or not without taking the bumper off

    • @DrivenByChris
      @DrivenByChris  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@drewwilliams4730 Hey what you saw in the video is exactly what I did . I did not use bolts and I did not reach behind the "splash shield". That thing is extremely difficult to reach behind to begin with. Bolts are a good idea. Whenever I break this lip I might use bolts but the screws work just as good if you do it right. If you do not want to take the bumper off, jack up the car and use screws to screw the lip on. Even easier than what I did. Removing the bumper is easy for me because I have done it many times in many different videos . ( fog light install, fog light leds, front grill, head lights, etc)
