OEM Aero Lip Install Question

I just received my aero lip (335i coupe) from longtran and it looks great! However, will I need any hardware for the install (screws/bolts)? I have some 3m double sided moulding tape, but am curious to know what else you all have used on your installs. Thanks in advance!

there are 6 screws on the bottom....thats it...just use the 3m tape on each end and the two uprights (left and right of the middle grill)....and your good to go!!!
by the way...if its cold out....use a blow dryer on the tape before applying and make sure the surfaces are dry and clean. I applied mine in cold weather and i had to re apply a few days later....its been fine since.

I put a little windex on the tape so I could adjust.

Get a buddy to help if you can.

It worked for me. Just be careful and don't over due it. If you put too much on it takes forever to dry.

Just installed my aero lip a few days ago and did the windex trick....I put too much windex on one corner and it did not stick at all...but after it dried a bit it stuck on good.
