Default Turbo 'S' Chin Spoiler Attachemnt

I Just filled in the bumperette and Liscence plate holes on a Factory Turbo Bumper (that I aquired from another RL'er) to give it the Euro-Look. I also have 'S' ducts, Euro clear corners, and a turbo tail ready to be painter as well. I wanted to go with the Turbo 'S' lip too, but considering all the $$ that I have spent recently, I am thinking about waiting for a while. My question is how does the Turbo 'S' Chin Spoiler attach? Will adding it later create problems for me? If so, am i better off waiting and having it done all at once? Everything else is ready to send it out for paint, and I am a bit anxious to see the results!

P.S. I have done a search, but was unable to find what I wanted.

I have the turbo s chin spoiler. Mine is mounted by 1 screw on each side and it kind of hugs itself into place. I did add some dubl sided body molding tape to make it fit a bit better.
I had it off for awhile and had 2 holes on each side of the lower front of car.

Jeff,

Glad the bumper is working out - sorry again for the shipping SNAFU.

Trinitony - Thanks for the links. I am not sure why, but I didn't find them in my search.

Photo's may be a while, I think that I have decided to wait until I get the 'S' lip and have everything painted at once.
btw, I took my spare cans (mod v2.0) in today to be stitched back up. They should be ready tomorrow. I screwed up my original plan, so v2.0 is totally gutted. We'll see how it turns out.
Let me know when you come to town... It is time to turn the sprinklers back on, it was about 70 degrees today.

Another mod that a Rennlister did was to fill in the "seam" channels on the TT bumper to get a very smooth look. There were a few pics posted...I think it was a yellow TT.

Interesting idea. If I wasnt going to add the 'S' lip, it might be worth considering. Adding the 'S' lip will give a seam anyways, so probably not worth it IMHO. The integral turbo bumper with 'S' lip marketed by Stuttgart Connection in the UK also looks very intersting... if only it was made in urethane instead of fiberglass.
