Howto:

Depending on how your car is lowered you may need to either jack it up from the front or the sides. I did mine from the front and i'm lowered on tein springs and on 16x7 rims. it was a very very very close fit taking the jack out but it worked.

If you buy the one from mustang site you will have to cut it to bumper size b/c you will notice it is a little too long. this is where 2 people come in handy. align it correctly to your bumper evenly, and mark where it needs to be cut off on both ends. once you mark it then you can make the cuts. keep on cutting to desired lenght of the bumper if the first one wasn't good enough. but remember, cut less then cut more b/c if you cut too much it wont be flush at the ends. Once you get the desired length you can start bolting.

Clamp the mach1 lip onto the bumper so it's stationary in the desired position you would like. when mounting the mach1 you will want to make some slits on the flap that connets to the bumper so it bends very easily and can be bent in a better angle then before it was cut. i did 4 slits. 1 on each far side of the lip and 2 in the near middle.

Bolting is easy. You want to start off in the middle of the lip and work your way out. take your drill bit, dpeneding on the size of your pushpins.i think i used a 1/4" but test them out anyways on pieces that you cut off and use one of your pushpines to push it through it. make sure it's a snug fit. now get under the car and start drilling. you will notice that with a good drill the holes are created in a second. our bumpers are not very thick. and just push the pin through the hole. the trick here to get it nice and flush on from the lip to the bumper is to drill the holes as close tot he area where the drill holed flap meets the front part that you can see on the outside, that way it's close flush to the bumper. what i did was bolt in the holes provided by the mach1 and it wasn't 100% flush looking in someparts to the bumper in the front of the lip. however it came out looking great and you would have to get on your knees and look at it. can't tell from a distance. i'll eventually go in there and fix it but not a eye soar. Start from the middle and work your way around moving the mach1 lip to desired position and making sure everything is aligned using your friends help on each side.

Now that it's all bolted up, make sure everything looks good,and you can start unclamping the lip, unjack the car, and remove the jackstands. Have a good feeling of installing something that easy and looks that good.
