Front bumper carbon fiber lip

samvora · 07-21-2021, 02:20 AM

So I had ordered a front bumper lip and a rear bumper lip from Maxton back in March and it finally arrived in USA last week and was shipped to me by Maxton via FedEx last week Monday for delivery to me on Friday 7/16. However, it still has not been delivered to me as yet and FedEx says that if I don't receive it by 7/22 then I should consider it lost - I am so furious that after waiting for it for more than 4 months it is lost. I don't have the patience to wait for another 3-4 months so I am looking for some options where I can get a CF front bumper lip at least asap. I don't want to pay the exorbitant shipping fees by purchasing one off of Ali express so any other vendors that I can purchase a CF one off of?

are you only wanting the Maxton or open to other brands? a few folks had good experience from eBay with this one (I think):

I am very much open to other brands and I chose Maxton only because of the cheaper shipping options. I guess now I will have to go back to the eBay/Aliexpress sellers.

I had the exact same lip that you shared and I hadn't secured it properly and it fell off the car - $700 mistake earlier this year

did you order the Maxton from the US distributor or overseas?

US distributor in IL. I ordered side skirts too which arrived fine but I guess FedEx lost this one. Have been hearing quite a bit about FedEx messing up deliveries lately.

I am going to call Mike at Maxton tomorrow if the package isn't delivered and then not sure how they handle this kind of a situation. Once that is sorted then I will order a new one off of eBay.

I know some folks here have ordered from other companies like Ikon and such so that's what I was hoping to get - names of some other known vendors that I can look at and who don't have a 3 to 4 months lead time.

ACS Style.

Possibly even coming from the same mold, since almost everything is made in China these days.

How does this attach to the bumper? Any drilling required?

12 screws on the bottom and double sided tape on the top edges.

can you post here photos of the screws/bolts/fasteners you used? I would rather purchase and provide them for my detailer. (as of right now, I don't know what they plan to use or if they even have decent hardware on hand.)
thanks

Are there any options for a front lip for a X6? My searches have been fruitless with the sole exception of one on eBay which looked suspect.
