Topic: beyonddc's ARS Bodykits HL Rear Lip (RUS6161)

[beyonddc]

I just received my ARS Bodykits HL Rear Lip (RUS6161) today.  This will be the thread I use to keep you guys updated.

- Ordered the part on March 14th 2009
- Send payment for shipping on April 1st 2009
- Received the part on April 14th 2009

As you can see the turn around time is an estimate of 1 month so please be patience if you order from ARS Bodykits.

The HL Rear Lip is shipped in two pieces.
It has a male and a female end where you can put the two pieces together.
It even came with stickers! 


This picture shows I am putting it together




Yay!  It fits perfectly.  The cutting is great!


Combined piece - BACK


Combined piece - FRONT


Due to my work schedule, the body shop and I agreed that we'll be painting it in two pieces.  The seam you see right now is because the rear lip/diffuser are just bolt on.  It is held by the bolts from my Rally Armor Mud Flaps.  The paint is fresh, it just got painted yesterday therefore the body shop said it would be better to wait it dry for couple of days before putting glue on there.  He want to make sure when he pushes it, it will not leave any fingerprint on the paint.

I'll be bringing it back on Saturday for the final installation.  The rear lip/diffuser is currently off.  These pictures are just a simple test fit.








Installation is completed.  My thoughts on it is that it made the car more complete.  I do have a regret that I should have the body shop to do it in one piece instead of two pieces.  The body shop technician recommended to do it in two pieces.
During the installation, we originally thought we could have it to hold up using double-sided 3M tape but failed.  We ended up drilling 4 holes on the bottom of the bumper. to make sure it stays still.  The two sides are tighten by the same screws for the mud flaps.







Gap Fixed!

Rear lip will be color match and the diffuser will be flat back.
I hope the body shop will not rip me off for the paint because I'm doing it in two colors.     But we'll see when I ask around.

Any idea what the diameter is where the exhaust tip sits?

I have the Tsudo exhaust which it pretty damn big. I'd love to snag this rear lip but fear i'd also have to buy a new exhaust

No clue man.  For exact measurement I would suggest you to send a PM to our ARS Bodykits representative on this forum.
