How much is everyone getting charged for the VRS front lip from JL-Motoring?

It's easier with two people. Line it up and apply pressure then screw. It's much easier if you have a lift. I paid $20 to get mine installed.

to the OP
no offense or anything but are your tips on wrong?
isn't the longer tip supposed to be in the inside?
I did not mean any offense, I just want to know the correct way of positioning staggered tips

NO ... he mentioned this before if you read his thread... the exhaust is a magnaflow universal muffler set up which i also have... the tips are not staggered hence it looks "odd" since the bumper has a curvature to it... he didnt align it wrong. its just the fact that the tips arent staggered. it looks fine in real life.

+1.... I have the same setup, the tips are just even. It looks fine but it bothered me a bit so last week I took the car to a muffler shop and had them extend the inner tips for me. Came out perfect!

Got home from work and saw a box by my front door which brought a big smile to my face since I was expecting my front lip to arrive today. Saw that the box was damaged from the outside. Started to get worried. Opened it up and saw this.

There are "Fragile" labels all over that damn box and it looks like UPS has tossed the box around like it was a hot potato! Got to give props to James at JL Motoring. He replied to my worried e-mail instantly and after sending him the photos said he would file a claim with UPS for the damage. Hope he can send me another one ASAP.

The first one I ordered had a couple cosmetic issues with it. I emailed him and he sent a return label. He sent out a replacement as soon as he got one in stock. I finally had a minute to pick it up. Its still in the box at my house...I hope this one is good, and that UPS didn't stomp on it like the pic above! OMG
