I figured as much. Besides thats a normal time window! Never doubted yall.
Looks awesome!
Does anyone have more detailed instructions, pictures or videos for installing the front lip?
I think it's fair to say the instructions that come with the kit are rather sparse :/
Remove the bumper, turn it upside down, lay the splitter on top, line up the corners, drill a hole through one side, attach bolt washers and nuts, repeat the other side, then drill the furthest forward you can without altering the angle it sits, within each recessed channel, then finish up with another 3 spaced out either side between the edges and the channels.
I ended up doubling the bolts in the recessed channels after I started the install with the bolts sitting to far back such that the front would likely flap at speed. Luckily I realized my error before I reinstalled the bumper.
I've had 135mph out multiple times since the install and it remains well secured.
We have just received a new product from Maxton for the MK7! We now carry the Maxton Design MK7 Rear Spoiler Extension! Fits all MK7 GTI and Golf R. Made of the same textured ABS plastic as the front lip spoilers, it makes the perfect addition to your GTI or R.
