"Carbon Fiber" Carlsson Style Front Lip - Is This Picture Normal?
Hi - I got this Carlsson Style "carbon fiber" Front lip spoiler in the mail yesterday and was wondering if anybody else that has this spoiler has the rectangular defect looking thing on the front passenger side (see pic below).
I think it is for a Carlsson sticker, but from my memory, I can't remember anybody in these forums having one with a sticker placed there...
Also - I was expecting a "carbon fiber" lip to be ALL carbon fiber. However it is only on the top visibile part of the lip and the rest is all plastic. Is this normall for all the replica style lips or did I get a cheaper one?
Thanks as always for your response and sorry in advance if these are total noob questions.

I might be wrong, but I think that is where the Carlsson logo should be on a the real one. Also, most lips are Carbon fiber overlay. I think a solid carbon fiber lip would cost a lot from material alone.

Yup. Sticker. Lol. I remember the authentic FRP one that I had (which is now on MixedFruits' car) had that same indent and came with the sticker as well. Try talking to some vendors and see if they have em. Otherwise I guess you're stuck with it :/ What vendor did you get your lip from?

Was it a pretty easy install with the included screws or did you need 2 people to do it?
Also, did you use the red 3M tape or did you just use screws??
thanks in advance!
