Yeah I have, I've read it all. I think I'd rather an ultrex style polyurethane one but. Seems less work to install too

Thanks mate, will do! (Once I decide what one to get haha) I wanna get it before/when I get my coilovers so the lip takes any scrape damage not my bar too, cause it's in pretty much perfect condition
Let me know with yours too!

Customise simply means centering the lip with the bumper and gradually secure it using self tapping screws...I used cable ties through existing holes to help hold the lip up under the bumper. The lip has enough surface area for you to choose whether you want it to sit mostly under the bumper or stick forward about an inch or so.

And then saw off the excess lip in the wheel guards. i didnt use a heat gun to mould the lip as I dont mind how it looked after the mounting.

I think I'm probably a little late to the thread here, but did you ever end up getting the lip on? I was looking at the exact same one you bought earlier but was unsure what the fitment would be like.

I tried the EZ lip thing. Looked good when I first put it on, then your car is next to another Subaru with a proper Ultrex lip etc and you realize how cheap and shit they look. But for $30 they are okay and are fairly indestructible (crumpled mine multiple times) Just wipe some Maguires tyre shine gel on it every week or so to keep it looking black.
