      I've said it once and I'll say it again, that's the most classic lip I have ever seen. Be sure to add an address and a prepaid UPS label ;)

        Classic. Wonder how that would work in L.A.

          Yeah, and then when you accidentally bump a curb or hit something in the road, insted of just ripping off the lip, it stays attached and twists your valence into a bread tie, costing more to fix/replace than it would to just replace the lip if someone steals it.

          Zip ties are the only way to go for iS/Rieger lips. That's how I have mine attached, I have a zip tie through every one of the holes that the clips snap into, so I think there's like close to 30 of them.

            I LOL at the noobs suggesting giant bolts , screws or rivets . :rofl:

            Like Josh suggests above , you don't want to rigidly mount the lip as it will get fubar'ed once knocked off and might tweak your valance as well .

            The sure fire way that I've always used is to use the OE clips or a few wel;l placed zip-ties to mount it ...but then also add a few zip-ties that are loose .
            That way once it gets torn off it will still be attached to the valance by the loose zip-ties .

            And you don't need 30 zip-ties either ...thats serious overkill , I only had 4 actually fastening my Rieger rep and currently have 4 holding up the "is" lip on my '89 .

              i've been meaning to steal one myself, but everyone in my area either has an early body of no lip.

                In L.A. they'd attempt to steal your identity as well. That or they would pass it off as Alpina because their was an address on it...dumb people here
