Stillen GTZ lip install (NEW PICS, 56K GO AWAY)

So I called Concept Z today concerning installation of my front lip. They said that the front would have to be cut out to fit it properly, if I wanted functional ducts (which I do want for my swap next year). So after much thinking, I just decided to tackle it. I actually just got done 10 min ago from typing this up!

It's 2am, and I can't sleep. I decided to head to Wal-Mart for a new carbide Dremel bit to cut out the notches. Here's my progress:

This is the first time I've ever taken the front bumper off. Not too bad once I finally did it


I know my car's been in some sorta wreck, nothing major though. This is the condition of my front bumper (you can also see the fog light housing cracked)


Test fitting the front. It physically wouldn't fit on if I didn't cut the slots.


Notches cut out (doing this made me nervous)


Quickley fitted to see how it sits. Turned out nice and flush


AND done! (hard to see since its like 6:45am)




I'm going to the paint shop today to see how much it's gonna be to have it painted......surely not that much. With Stillen side skirts, I think it's really gonna set it off.
