Unpainted ia the way to go.

I actually tried to paint it using Krylon (for plastic). I didn't like the texture so I ended up wiping it all off using acetone. The original PU finish is dark and compliment well with the QSM color of my car.

FWIW, the install process required an extra set of hand to position and keep the lip in place while I drill. And the four popits that come with the kit aren't as durable as OEM version since the head will break on you if you have to pry it up ever so gently.

I purchased it on ebay bayson type r lip. $100 shipped. Took me 10 minutes. 4 of those plastic pop in fastener and 8 screws. All predrilled on the lip just used a drill bit to put holes on the under side of my bumper. All screws came with the lip. Easiest mod in a long time i did it by myself. I highly recommend it.

Is there a preference among suggested lips...JDM style or other style...is it something one person can do or is 2 needed?

As a novice modder, i must ask what size drill bit needed for bumper screws.. ..thnks

I was able to install it by myself, but I used a couple of buckets to help support the ends of the lip (far side of bumper by the wheels). 2 people would definitely make it easier.

You don't need to predill the holes. The screws they provide will tap through the plastic with no problem with a power drill. Just get the lip on in position and quickly drill the screw into place.
