Rubber front under lip on the MR's coming off?
Does anyone else have problems with their MR's Rubber Front Under lip coming off when scraping it a little? When I first got the car my dad accidentally went up our drive way a little too fast and scraped the lip and it never sat right on the bumper again. I got it to be sturdy again but every time it scrapes a little it just comes right off. I was wondering if anyone has the same problems and knew how to fix this. Its bugging the crap out of me and i am ready to just rip it off.

I have the same problem, but I haven't got around to fixing it yet. The rubber strip is attached to an aluminum strip behind it. I think the process will involve straightening that strip out.

I got rid of mine because of the scraping and got this:
Beatrush underpanel. It was annoying when I had to literally inch my way up to my g/f's driveway.

I also got one of the Beatrush panels, amazing piece. Now, if I can just get off my lazy @$$ and put it on the car...
I'm going to see if I can retain the rubber lip with the under panel.

Has anyone used an aftermarket underpanel, like the beatrush, with a front fender lip, like the apr one?

I know exactly what you mean. I got it from the group buy back in December of 2005 and I just installed it three weeks ago. The lip should work on it, but it'll defeat the purpose of the vertical metal strips that guide the air to the brake guides.
