two screws on each side with double side tape everywhere. this lip is not right for our cars at all a little wind got in the front part and pulled it right under my car. did not hit anything. I would suggest that no one get this lip!

wipe the whole front of the bumper and the lip with alcohol and liquid nails that sucker on next time. i considered the lip cuz of its price but now that i see, that price is too much for a disposable lip :S

sorry to hear about the lip man. to be honest, i think the ebay lip looks like shit compared to the WW. the ebay lip for some reason never looked right to me. your car looked good with it on but it will look 10x better with the WW lip. you probobly have one of the hottest primrose whips on this site so keep reppin strong for us good luck
