Lip Kit install for 01 corolla

Just ordered a lip kit, waiting for it to come in, wanted to know how to install it, and how hard it is. I mean I know its probably bolt on but pictures on how would be nice. Thanks , by the way, this is the lip kit I ordered.

You'll need to drill. I recommend you bring it to a body shop.

I heard its pretty much a DIY, im pretty good with tools and drilling. But I just wanted to see where exactly people drill at. Thanks

The front bumper would require at least 2 at each side, so four minimum. The side skirts have one predrilled screw for the front. The rear and length itself will require several more. the rear would need at least another 2 for each side into the bumper. And of course, industrial 3M double sided sticky tape all around.

Thanks, yeah I was looking at the side skirts and noticed there were two bolts already. Now I know I can use those. by the way, how is this lip kit that I purchased??

It's a copy of the Shyguy lip kit. It's a good one at least by design. The materials will depend on who copied it and using what.

Wow thats a good price .... Wish it was that low when I purchased my kit....
I think that is shy guy he just changed his name ....

the most important thing you need to know is patients, take your time in everything that you do.

here's some quick check point before you install it

- test out the body kit, install it using duct tape
- measurements of the drill points before drilling
- sanding down the uneven sides (especially the side skirts)

Will take my time, are the sideskirts that uneven? but who is this shyguy?, the person I ordered from , his real name is Paul. Is this who shyguy is?

Shyguy is a Canadian guy who originally put together a lip kit based on the existing Tom's kit. Now there are a bunch of other guys making copies of his original design now.

even better, shyguy charges an arm and a leg for his product.

And it has a hidden customs charge that comes a couple months later too. Suck Fail.

was wondering if i would get a customs charge fee?

yes you will be given a custom's charge in a couple months... not unless you live in canada then you're good.

lol, sucks, I heard sometimes you dont and sometimes you do?, I guess I'll just wait...How much do customs usually charge?

No idea. The last guy who got one said it was outrageous.

wow...really? hope its not that bad when I get mine, or hopefully I dont get one!

Well a copy of shyguys kit would essentially be a copy of a copy of a copy as there is no such tom's kit for our cars.

The original Tom's kit which it was based off was for a Corolla, but not of this year or model.

Which makes it a copy because it was never made for this model.

I don't even think it qualifies as a copy since parts had to be retrofitted to fit or taken from other kits to match.

A copy is anything that isn't original. If retrofitting was involved, then it was not originally made for that car hence making it a copy.

original...lol

wow, i just got a boner looking at that

can someone post pics of the rear of thier corolla with the toms kit?

ooops nevermind... found a few pics here heh...

do not bring it to a body shop unless you know someone..otherwise they will just rip you off..the best way is to diy!!!!

yeah, I am going to be doing it myself, thanks for the advice. Anyone have any pics on where the bolts go, or how it would look like after its bolted on?

haha ok. It's a copy.
