My question is, does that actually hold and how do you deal with over epoxy since the only part touching or in contact with the bumpers on the top or sides is thin as a penny. I would think you would have epoxy everywhere?

Thanks in advance
I didn't use Betalink adhesives because I didn't want to deal with the messy aftermath Another member Alan installed his with 3M VHB double sides tape and the supplied screws and bolts. I followed his instructions and as of today the front lip is still on the car without any issues. Here is his DIY thread if you are interested in going that route. http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1132458


Another member used the Betalink and his instructions here http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...60&postcount=1

And also I'm attaching the official BMW parts installation instructions pdf. for reference. Good luck!
