who else has a saggy stillen front lip?

Starbux · 10-15-2012, 06:06 PM

Hey guys talked to Dave ( or David) at stillen today. He stated that it is from friction of it being mounted wrong... let me explain... if the lip isn't installed correctly then it will be pushed down causing the lip to give way in the middle like it has for us.

The solution he gave me.

Use a heat gun and the lip should go back to original shape or bring it to a body shop and have them put it in the oven. If I had any other problems please contact him. I asked him if I can use different bolts and he told me yes. Go ahead and use ones with washers n nuts for a more secure lock. Also MAKE SURE you use that 3m adhesive **** lol.

I can't for the life of me figure out how you could install it wrong unless you used their hardware...

Does anyone ever just go 'Y'know what? Maybe we f'd up...' and make it right anymore?

I agree... This many people with the problem and we all installed it wrong? And that lip fit well and pretty tight, I'm not sure how it can be mounted that much differently
