Volvo lip mounting methods

[Stephen]

I've heard of zip ties, screws clips, etc..

What are the different ways people have mounted theirs?

[deutschman]

did mine with screws and some small washers to keep the screws from ripping threw if i hit anything. works well.

good to know, did you drill into the valence or use existing holes?

[Danny]

Self tapping screws into the valence.

Danny, post up some pictures of the exact way you did it so Stephen can attempt to do this himself. I was going to help him out but I have a bunch of shit going on in the next couple weeks.

Actually, I'm not gonna single Danny out alone.

[Danny]

I'll post some up tomorrow.

[Stephen]

Basically i'm just looking for ideas so i don't fuck up my valance after doing the swap..

[Danny]

I don't know if its any more self explanatory than that.

Get under your car with a drill and go to town.

fair enough...

[Danny]

You'll be fine, nothing that cant be repaired easily.

[Stephen]

alright, cool. i should be able to do this no prob.. im sure it was easier than swapping the valance

[ethree]

I'm going to mock up the volvo lip with the clips on my valence that aren't broken, then use the holes where I removed all the broken clips to mark the volve lip, then drill the lip and use copious amounts of zipties to hold it nice 'n' tight. There are already a shit ton of holes in the bottom of the valence.

Hey Stephen, You'll have to remove about 3 fingers worth of plastic from each end of the lip. I say 3 fingers, because that way you have plenty of room for fixing any screw-ups, in the end you'll have removed about 3-3.5 inches from the ends and yeah self tapping screws is the best way to go, for the volvo lip.









PS. Did the wall of smoke clear up from car yet?
