Front lip install
O hai! I just wanted to request some assistance with installing a front lip on my car. It sounds like it's a job for 2 and some equipment I don't have (but I do have a drill w00t!). It shouldn't take very long. In exchange, I can serenade you with my dulcet voice (*cough*), make you a sandwich, lovingly tuck your kids in at night, or mercilessly get back that money you're owed! You guys always decline but the offers still stand.
Thank you in advance (hopefully!)

Re: Front lip install
Does 10 AM work? Also, there is a 40% chance of rain. Is there covering near by we can commandeer if needed?
No legs to be broken yet, but all be warned.

Re: Front lip install
The more the merrier.
I hadn't realized this would be a rainy weekend (sucks). I have a temporary garage area that's sheltered that could be used. Unfortunately, it's not well lit, but there is some lighting.
If it's more convenient and dry out, I can bring my car out to Springfield. Either way is fine with me. And yes, 10 am works.
Thanks again!!

Re: Front lip install
Neither of us have garages, so bringing it out to Springfield won't help Let's just hope for the best weather. I have lights that we could hook up to your car to get some lighting under it.

Re: Front lip install
I'm good with either place. Thank you for the offer Colin. Another option would be to go to a parking garage, like Metro.

Re: Front lip install
Yes, thank you for the offer indeed. I think we should be ok at my building if J is able to bring the lights. But thanks for offering your spot. Much appreciated.

Re: Front lip install
The wrx looks terrific with the lip. Special thanks to Adam for his hard work and expertise.
I'll post pics after I get the bird crap off my car.

New shoes and a new lip: looks good.
Any photos where the black lip on the black car isn't in a black shadow?

Re: Front lip install
Thanks guys. I found a decent set of P7s online that needed a little TLC. A trip to Wheel Worx got them looking nice. The wheel caps are actually for the PFF7 but they fit (the P7 caps were in a sorry state).
Overall, I think I'm done with cosmetic mods. I took the WRX to the Carlisle Import and Kit show this weekend where it got a nice reaction. I actually took home an award from the Saab show
