    Cupra Lips in Winter

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm thinking about getting a Cupra lip, but I'm a little worried about how these things stand up in the snow living in Canada and all. For those of you with Cupra lips, how are they holding up? any problems? Also, how easy are they to install, Do they just screw in to the bumper or do they use 3m tape, how exactly is it done?

    Thanks for your help

    if you bolt that baby on with a lot of screws like the OEM DTM splitter, it won't come off easily but I do understand your concern

    No they don't come pre drilled and they need to be cut to fit. I did a small write up on how I installed mine. I'm guessing you'd have to do similar things on a B7. Oh and I took it off for winter.

    you normally have to shave or cut down the tabs and then bolt them in, I would put at least 3 on each side and 1 in the middle which is 7, others put more.
