It attaches real easy and fast....it uses 4 screws(2 on each side) that hold the existing bumper cover on + 2 push pins(1 each side) provided by CDC through factory
holes...and across the front, center section below the lower grill, it uses 3M tape...take less tha 5 minutes to install, after its painted of course.
It lowers the the front ground clearance by approx 1 inch, maybe less...yes you have to watch car stops and curbs and such.

That's the reason I won't have one.
Love the look Don, but not as much as mine lowered.
We'll compare in about an hour or so. See you at the Q.

I love it don.. but you better not lower the car .. or you will sweat over every bump.

BTW, I guess I missed you last night. My wife said she met you near my car after the driver's meeting. We'll have to meet next time.

That looks good Don. I almost wish I had bought the classic instead of the aggressive. I'm finally getting used to driving with it. The first week I thought I would rip the thing off the front of the car....

RE: My new Classic Chin Spoiler
Thanks, guys... after seeing it now for a day, I like it even more. They guy who painted it did an incredible job of matching the Sonic Blue tint. No matter what angle or lighting I see it in, it looks perfect. And the install was so easy.

RE: My new Classic Chin Spoiler
I think it looks great on your car... if I had a coupe....
But I don't...
next for me, probably the Eibach springs... or maybe 4:10s... but only AFTER I put the underdrive pulley on.

That little mod makes the front end look perfect. I really like the chin spoiler but I think I'll hold off doing it until the street on which I live gets repaired. It would tear off the spoiler the first time I drove on it.

RE: My new Classic Chin Spoiler
Steve, it's not as low as you might think. My driveway slopes downhill, so bewteen that and the shadow, it's a bit of an optical illusion. It's only an inch lower than the stock height... still over 6 inches of ground clearance.
