Did you use existing screw holes or was there additional surgery needed ?

Looks very nice, this lip design seems to be the go to choice for most X5s. Where did you get it? How much? EDIT: found it on the previous page I also see you put the M mirror caps on...carbon fiber? Where from?

Would love to see some more photos too! Sorry for all the extra questions
The lip comes with 4 points to screw in the self tapping screws at but they are exactly where the rubber grommets are so you can't really drill the screw in unless you drill a hole into the grommets and all of that so I basically just drilled a hole next to the points and screwed the lip in. Also added 1 long screw in the middle of the lip and all holds perfectly tight. Yes, I love the look and how well it sits and moulds to the bumper.
Nice. I also ordered one from China but in glossy black. Did you have to use double side tape and did you get install instructions?
