RKP front lip installed. Props to IND!

I'll start with saying that I had countless modes on countless Ms. Everything between ACS and Hamann.

I received my RKP front lip from IND this morning and I got to tell you that the finish and fit is out of this world! When I tried fitting for the 1st time, it felt like the lip was taken out at the factory and now BMW shipped me the missing part.

Installation was as easy as 1-2-3 if you have two hands and can hold a wrench. One of the tricks I used is I pilled off a small corner of 3M tape before putting it on and securing with stock fasteners. I did not tighten the faster all the way and left the gap so that I can pull the tape off, once I found the perfect position for the lip. Then peel the tape off tighten the faster. Done! Enjoy stock lines of your bumper blend in to the RKP CF. Stunning!!!

Oh yeh, the packaging was just perfect. Bunch of towels and bubble wrap around it.

Nate and Co., big thanks for your help and continues advice! You guys are 1st class!!! Looking forward to doing more business with you!!!

Pics later, once I get other goodies on....

Got to visit the fine fellas of iND yesterday for some 'simple stuff'. What a class act these guys are. Kinda dropped in on them late Friday and they couldn't have made us feel more welcome. I was kinda like a kid in a candy store - didn't quite know what to look at.

Even my wife started to 'get it' after a bit.
