Hey,
Looking for any info on mating a focussport front lip onto a svtbumper.
Any info from other sites would be greatly appreciated, or if you could post on there for me, it would be very appreciated.

Thanks!

It should be similar to putting a Mustang Mach lip on an SVT bumper. Rivets or self-tapping screws and patience.

Never seen it done. They made of fiberglass and carbon fiber (read no flex like the Mach 1) so it best be a direct fit. You will be it hero if you pull it off, but they are already so rare since they were discontinued 3-4 years ago, they are real hard to come by. If you already have one, hang tape it into place to check the fitment. If it's a go, a mix of 3m double sided tape may help, but screws are definitely in your future.

When i bought it off you, you said its been done. I did see the picture you had up, but it looks like it may have been deleted.

If they're rare I would try to sell it before hacking it up.

First off I have never sold an FS lip, ever. You bought a Ford Accessory/S2 lip.

Second, I did say it has been done, and posted the pictures. I also said I did not know how it was installed/what was done to install it, nor what the fit would be like, other than it has been fitted as seen in the pictures.

The lip you bought is an old Ford accessory kit, not an FS lip.

The picture Hotrodwagon posted is of an SVT with that lip on it to show that it has been done, it's up to you to figure out how to do it though.
