Any Downfall to Bolting an Is lip right to the Valance?

[golde30]

I'd laugh to see the Rieger's massive downforce break all the clips at 100mph down the highway and see the wires trying to hold that bitch in place...... :roll:

LOL...werd...but we're talkin IS lip rite now, and i have mine bolted into the valence with about 8 screws...i have hit multiple things with the lip, and i havent lost it yet...oh yeah, and i have about 2 or 3 clips that survived holding the spoiler in place so that its easy to line it up and put screws through...hehe

the clips are quite strong, smart ass ;) you'd need a splitter to make any downforce, and even then, it's probably not too much for the clips to handle. (although the splitter makes the car much slower after 120mph)

Im sure this doesnt apply to a Ryan splitter on a stock i lip? Rarely go over 120mph anyways. How much downforce or impact could those stock lip clips hold? I replaced all of mine and they seemed pretty good.

Hum, Maybe I'll make a little Jig and test a spoiler clip at school on the Instron machine.

I remember reading a post by somebody a while back who used a splitter on their is lip with just the plastic clips holding it on.. and it ripped off on the freeway. dunno how old his clips were, but if I had a splitter I'd reinforce it for sure.
