Assion Ayikutu well I have a few ways of avoiding rock chips: never tailgate, stay away from following big trucks, trakktape on track days and that’s it. Of course I’ll get rock chips but in three years I’d rather pay $1000 to fix my chips vs $2500 now to wrap the car. And honestly I do like the feel of a fresh paint under my palm haha ....I’m weird I know

Great video. Thank you for sharing! Did you put the splash guard back on? I didn't see that part in the video. In the OEM part installation instruction, it asks to trim the splash guard before putting it back on. Probably don't need to do that I am thinking for non-OEM.
@TommyLGarage6 жыл бұрын
Paxton Patiwan thanks for watching! I ended up not reusing the splash guards. I decided that they’re not needed especially with he bottom coverage the lip provides. Also it would make it much harder to install the kit.

Since I will be wrapping some areas of the front and rear of the car in black, I will just have them install it at the same time. Knowing myself I Fck something up if I tried it.

Hey Tommy! Loving your videos. Quick Question.. How would you raise the nose of the car(in my case F83 M4) if I only have 1 Jack and 2 stands??
@TommyLGarage6 жыл бұрын
won il kim thanks! You could jack up one side and stick something under the wheel. Then come up to the other side and to the same. Or jack up the car on one side and put the stand under the control arm. Then do the same on the other side. Should be fairly easy. I used to do it all the time with my other car. Let me know how you make out!

@TommyLGarage6 жыл бұрын
PaulSvk84 Happy to hear that! Honestly just make sure the lip is aligned and start from there. If I were to do it again I would attach the middle first making sure it’s centered and then I would do the outside. Also when you’re drilling the holes at the bottom for the center of the lip make sure it’s not too much towards the front. Otherwise it might stick out and you might be able to see the screw. Other than that it’s an easy install if you get stuck just let me know.
