Using this front lip is a breeze. First, make sure your vehicle's front end is clean and free of dirt. Then, align the front lip with the pre - drilled holes on your car and use the included hardware to bolt it on. When installing, be gentle to avoid scratching the carbon fiber surface. As for maintenance, regularly clean the front lip with a soft cloth and a mild cleaner. Avoid using abrasive materials as they can damage the glossy finish. Also, in harsh weather conditions, it's a good idea to check the bolts periodically to ensure they are still tight.
