Dont be like me this is my 3rd or 4th install and Ended up buying two OEM front splitters. The first one went down on me one windy night on the highway.. terrible experience.
Thanks for the feedback. I did buy some OEM automotive grade 3M (not sold off the shelf) but sounds like beta-link is still the better way to go. I do still need to figure out how I can trim back some of the PPF on the bumper so I can mount the brackets and sides of the lip. I don't think it's going to adhere well to the PPF.
