Shop around and ask for a discount as I paid around $50 (unpainted). There are 11 (if I remember right) plastic rivets that hold it on (rivets should come with the spoiler). Pop on -- pop-off. <img src="http://web.dsldesigns.com/~ljcook/radiator/images/29.jpg" alt=" - " />

I did it myself. Just drive the front wheels onto a 2x4 plank or something to give you a bit more room underneath.
POST 4Original post
Just curious... What color does the lip come in form the factory?
POST 5Original post
It is a flat black plastic. I did not paint mine as I would have been hating myself after hitting my first parking block.
POST 6Original post
Awsome! my car is black too. Will it fit a '02 cab with aero kit?

C4C_Leon, This fits only aerokit front bumpers and the part number is 996 505 986 00. The rivets should come with it but if they don't they are 999 507 427 40 and you will 11 of them. KLZ, That plug that is removed from the aerokit bumper when you add the center radiator. There is nothing to buy if you are adding the radiator. If you want to put that to plug an open bumper I do not have a part number for that item only the whole bumper.

hey Loren, I am gonna remove the cover for the third radiator on the aerokit bumper tommorrow. I was under the impression that it had to be cut out. from your site it seems that it is a glued on seperate piece and it should come out with a putty knife? The entire bumper is already painted including that cover. Should this be a simple removal. Thanks

C4C, I picked up that lip a few weeks ago, all the dealerships areound LA were charging around $70, but they were on back order. I ended up getting it from upon3racing for $95, they didnt even include rivets. I had to get those from the auto gallery. but you may have better luck now.

raffi, Finding the edge and peeling back the black epoxy is teh tough part. Once you get it started it is easy to pull and find the edge.
