Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Installed on a Subaru Crosstrek. Be advised that it has an obnoxious chemical smell upon opening. Just lay it flat in an unoccupied room for a few days. The smell mostly goes away. The installation instructions were in Thai. Lol But there are pictures tho. Had to clean the underside well with wipes/soap/water/alcohol. The cleaning may take a few rounds, but very important. It won’t stick to a dirty surface so don’t get mad if it falls off later on bc you’re too lazy to spend the extra 5-10 minutes to really clean the underside. (Just saying.) It comes with two adhesive promoters but it should have come with 3. They dry out pretty quick, but are essential for the adhesion process. It does take some time to measure and cut out the “triangles” for the bends. I just used a pen to mark on the red tape to guesstimate where the bends are and marked the triangles from there. Also, you’ll have to force the lip to bend. The lip is rubber, it’s not all that elastic. Would also recommend utility scissors to cut the triangles too. The rubber is thick enough that I’m not sure normal scissors will get the job done. I had to use two hands to clomp down on the scissor handles. It’s been 3 days since the lip application. Hasn’t fallen off so that’s good. Also haven’t used the screws yet but will probably put them on. Haven’t braved sending it thru a car wash just yet so may have to send an update for that later on. All in all I like it so far. Considering buying two more for the side skirts IF the front lip lasts thru a car wash. Lol I do like that it’s rubber bc cracking a real lip kit would make me cry. *Update (4/3/18): Front lip still on after 4 automatic car washes and a couple of thunderstorms later. Still haven’t gotten around to putting the screws on either. 👍 **Update (2/4/19): Front lip still on. Eventually had to add 2 screws to one of the bends bc it was starting to fall off at the ‘corner.’ (This was the same place I had to cut “triangles” to make it bend.) The screws were recently installed in Jan. 2019 so the lip held up well with all things considered. Sadly the front lip had an unfortunate run in today with old debris from a blown tire. The car in front of me kicked it up so fast that I didn’t have time to swerve or brake safely at highway speeds. Poor car took it like a champ. =/ Oddly enough, the lip is still on. However, the center portion of the lip split horizontally right where the lip and adhesive part meets in the middle. Will probably have to replace it eventually as rubber will degrade making the gap even longer. However, I will be purchasing another three once it’s time. I’ll redo the front lip but also add side skirts. ***Update (03/05/20): The original lip is still on! The adhesive is wearing off on one end near the wheel well, but not bad for 2 year application. Got lazy and used Velcro to keep it on for now. The split in the middle has widened, but still safe to drive with. Ran this thru the car wash well over 30+ times. Some of the carbon fiber graphics has worn/scratched off, but still decent shape with all things considered.
