did you get them installed yet? i installed the sides and rear and rear side things over the weekend. sides were pretty simple and did them my self with no lift. the rear is a bit tricker and there is a decent size gap on the top of the diffuser. looks like a poor design, the taps are extend up and then bent leaving a gap. at eye view it’s very noticeable and wondering if i missed something in the install.
the two bolts do need to be bolted in, have to drill 2 holes in the plastic piece behind and annoyingly hand tighten the small bolt. nothing fits back there beside a small wrench and for some reason the bolt is extra long. took me 20 just to install the nut |

pics attached. taking the pics i guess it’s not as bad as it looked when installing as the rear was raised on race ramps and in my face but there is a definitely a design flaw. they should of just did straight tabs instead of raising them. as mentioned those two bolts need to be bolted down or the diffuser will flap around.
although i have the v4 lip sitting i am going to run the aeroflow lip till i rip it off. the kit flows well with the aero lip and those that are considering a full kit. despite the negative comments about the Maxton stuff i am happy with the purchase. still the only brand that has a full abs kit on the market. during BF sales i was debating to go full carbon which would of been close to 4x the price some instructions would of been nice specifically for the diffuser since it’s a more involved install. the manuals they link you too are generic and don’t provide much Last edited by Ehloo; 12-16-2024 at 01:00 PM.. |

I have the V1 splitter (installed with self tappers). I’m looking at the side skirts, but wondering if anyone is running them with 3M alone. Drilling into the front bumper was bad enough and really don’t want to repeat along the entire underside of the car.
I mean, the spoiler is only held on with 3M…so can it work for the side skirts ![]()

Vhb is strong in shear, not so much in tension. I wouldn't mount a part on the underside without screws.

Are the side skirts a hollow piece too, or are they solid?

Finally installed the Street Pro Front Splitter v1. Thick ABS, hopefully this will be a more permanent lip that the one from Amazon. Had to get creative with the install since the Mishi skid plate was on the way. Ended up buying longer oem hardware. I had to drill the bumper on the sides but the other hardware used oem holes. Still, had to redrill some holes making them a bit bigger to be able to align the hardware. Pretty solid install.
The look is more subtle than expected. |
