Has anyone installed this non-M sport front lip?

Get the poly-urethane version. CF will never have good fitment. Here's mine

I purchased one of Ikon's rear spoilers and it fit perfectly. I have their front bumper lip and it's slightly off but still an awesome fit and I'm happy with it. You may get lucky with the CF but PU definitely the way to go

Did you install the lip yourself?

With the help of a buddy yeah. There's predrilled holes in the lip I got but none of them met up with anything so we just drilled it in underneath. Never had a problem since

Ikon is actually a vendor here so you can always take it up with him.

I bought the CF front lip from Ikon. Fitment isn't the best, you need to drill all the holes yourself (Ikon confirmed that was the case).

It seems really flimsy when you install it. It's hollow (looking from the back), so the bottom of the lip is a thin piece of material. Once I installed it, I bought a 1lb can of minimum expanding spray foam (type for going around windows/doors) and filled the lip from the backside.

That made it rigid, and now I'm really happy with the setup.

Do the pre-LCI lips fit LCI cars? I got the lip from Ikon but it wouldn't fit. Had to send it back. There are lots of polyurethane lips on ebay but not sure if they will fit my '16 model. I know that the LCI bumper is a little different.

I have not found any non-m sport LCI lips and it is quite disappointing.

I have the same lip. Fit decent. Has 2 minor gaps near the Fog lights but my car is black so you cant really tell. Prob the best front lip for a non-m sport at least from what I've found.
