So i neded up pickn the vr6 lip off ebay. its a bit longer than the regular lip that comes on the 93-98 jettas but for some reason it just doesn't wanna fit on there right. Is there any cutting you have to do to make it fit?

Once your stock lip is off the bumper you will see a small lip on the bumper that needs to be trimmed back about 3/8" or 1/2".
Not everyone does this but you should also cut a V shaped notch into the corner tabs on the vr lip it will let it wrap around the bumper with more ease.

i already tried the V notch's in the sides...ha so thats done. but ahh isee now. and it slides in and fits and locks good? im gunna be doing it at a buddies house and just dont wanna hack up the bumper for no reason. haOriginally posted by renngolf View PostOnce your stock lip is off the bumper you will see a small lip on the bumper that needs to be trimmed back about 3/8" or 1/2".

Even if you somehow managed to hack it up you wont see it once the lip is on. You're shortening the distance for the vr tabs to fit properly into the bumper slots.Comment
