RhinoLip Is NOT A Tape-On Lip: Hardware Only Install

Hey There Fellow RhinoLip'er?!

Just Wanted To Make Sure Since You've Might Of Heard Of "EZ-Tape-On-Lip".

Offered Since May of 2010, It's A Chinese Cheap-Quality "SQUISHY" Type Tape-On Lip.

(They're Out Of Renton, WA) That You Understand & Know That RhinoLip Doesn't "Tape-On" For Installation.

Naturally?? We're Not Really Big Fans Of Something That Is Made In CHina (HUman RIghts Violations & All)

We're ALSO Not Real Big Fans Of Something That Sticks On Using Cheap Knock-Off Double-Sided "Tape".

Think About It! Would YOU Want To Stick-Something On Your Car Like A Fender Using Double-Sided Tape?.

RhinoLip is Based Upon the NLA (No Longer Available) $417.00USD (Yes! It Was THAT Expensive!) LOTuS Rubber Chin-Lip.

Still Able To Find NOS (New Old Stock) On eBay For About $190.00USD Each (About Half-Price)

No hardware Kit, No Instructions, Nothing But A Piece Of Rubber For $190.00USD With Mounting Holes In It:

Since 2006? RhinoLip Sought To Provide A Quality USA Made Reasonably Priced Flexible Rubber Chin-Lip To Fit A Variety of Cars.

Hardware only. Drilling/making holes sort of thing

LOTuS Engineers Had Access To Real & Genuine 3M Double-Sided VHB Tape (Available Since The 1970's) But Chose Prudently To Install Their

LOTuS Rubber Lip Using Christmas-Tree Push-Rivets.

RhinoLip Thinks LOTuS Engineers Know How To Work On Cars.

RhinoLip Thought LOTuS Engineers Knew Things That Most People Do Not.

So? RhinoLip KEPT The Hardware Install Method (Not 3-Steps, 10 Minute "Tape-On" Stuff).

Nothing will "Stick" to RhinoLip so no Tape installation but here's the why of it:

#1). RhinoLip is made up of 4 Rubber Composite Compounds (TPE, TPU, EPDM, & Silicone) that "Sweat" oil, 

#2). RhinoLip was designed with a ROUGH Surface feature by design. 

SO, if That's ok with you?? 

Just Let Us Know If You've Already Ordered That You're Good-2-Go WIth This & We'll Go Ahead & Get Everything Processed!.

If All That Is NOT Ok?? Just Please Let Us Know!.

We Can Cancel & Refund & Send You A Free Sample Pack First So You Can Compare The 2 (RhinoLip Versus EZ-Lip) & Then Make A Better Buying Decision.

This Is Because RhinoLip Just Wants To Ensure You're 100% Taken Care Of On Things Is All.

We Are Crazy About RhinoLip But A Bit MORE Crazy About Our Customer Service.

So Let Us Know As Quick As You Can Because We Usually Immediately Process Orders.

So, Hope All This Helps?

Thanks For The Great Courtesy & Considerations! 

Kindest Of Regards:

eBay Mobile-Phone Device & Optimised eSeller Listings

Hello there!

This Is Regarding your RhinoLip Purchase?

eBay Asserts That Up To 60% (If Not More Actually) Of eBay Purchases & eBuyers Use Mobile Devices (Phones) To Conduct Their On-Lin eCommerce Purchases.

As A Result? eBay Corp. Recently "Optimised" eBay Listings For Mobile Phone Devices Without Any consultation, In-Put, Or Over-Sight From eBay Sellers ("Us").

We Think eCommerce Purchases Ought NOT To Be Done On A Mobile Phone Device Without SOME Warnings & Caveats, Or At Least Proper Expectations, Please.

Reading An eSellers Listing Description Is A Required Policy Of eBay.

Here's why: Alot Of eSeller Listings Are VERY Detailed.

eBuyers Need To Move BEYOND The Optimised "Title" + "Single Picture" + "Price" + The Big "Blue Buy It Now" Button & Instead Investigate The Listing Further,.

These Items Do NOT Constitute An eSellers "Item Description".
It's eBay Policy That The Buyer HAS to Read An eBay Sellers Listing & Item Description

RhinoLip's eBay Listing Is VERY DETAILED With Links, Pictures, Video's, Social-Media ICONS, Comprehensive Item Descriptions & Details Along With All Sorts Of Info.

All This Info? is NOT fully presented on a Mobile Phone Device BECAUSE Of Several Factors:

1). The Very LIMITED Band-Width Of The Phone Service Providers,

2). The Diminutive Screen Size Of The Device & Limited Technology.

3). Perhaps The Rush-Rush Of Todays Busy Bustle Of Life In General.

There Are At Least 3 Additional Steps Necessary In Order To GET To The Actual Item Description & eSellers eBay Listing Outline On A Mobile-Phone:

Below Is An Example Of the 3 Additional Steps To Actually & Finally GET Our Listing Outline:

A Lot Of This Info Is Totally Eliminated By The eBay Corp's Mobile-Device "Optimisation".

As A Result?
Buyers Have A very Limited View Of A eSellers Listing & Info If Viewed On A Phone.

This leads to "Wasn't what I thought or expected" Issues & eBuyer Frustrated Return Requests.

NOT your Fault, NOT Our Fault either!
It's Just A Normal Limitation Of Mobile Phone Hardware & Technology.

PLEASE: REVIEW RHINOLIP'S LISTING ON A TABLET, LAPTOP, OR PC To Get What A "RhinoLip" Is & Is NOT.

We Can Respectfully & Nicely Cancel & Refund Orders, Just Please Contact Us BEFORE The Item Is Processed & Despatched Or Shipped Out!.

eBay Requires Most eSellers (Especially Top-Rated+PLUS Sellers) To Handle & Process That SAME Business Day, So Quick Considerations & Required.

Hope All This Helps Avoid Any Frustrating "Wasn't What I Thought Or Expected" Issues.

On Top Of THis Frustrating Experience?? eBuyers Are Required To pay For Return Shipping Fees.

(We Have A Way To Save The eBuyer On This, Just See Our Other Guide Titled:
"EZ-Returns DIY How-To "RTS, Return To Sender: REFUSED")

Thankscias!

RHINOLIP: Installing It Right The FIRST Time! No TAPE!.

Just so You Know??:

RhinoLip® Is Modelled After The NLA Or No Longer Available LOTuS Rubber Chin-Lip.

The LOTuS Rubber Chin-Lip Could Be Bought NEW OEM For $417.00USD/Each.

Want A NOS or New Old Stock LOTuS Rubber Chin-Lip?, You Can some-times Find Them on eBay For About $200.00USD/Each.

LOTuS Motor~Cars LTD.
(You Know, Those Waaaaaay Smarter Than Most High-End Cars & Performance Guys??.)
Used Push-In Type "Christmas-Tree" Rivets To Mount The LOTuS Rubber Lip.

Rhinolip Thought Lotus Engineers Know Some Things That Most People & Even Those EZ-Chair "Smart" Just Tape-It-On 10-Minute Install Quack-Engineers Think They Know.

(You Know, Those 10-Minute 3-Step just Peel & Tape-In-On Geniuses?)

Rhinolip Only Added A Slight Improvement To The Lotus Install Hardware Scheme By Using Alternating Self-Tapping Screws + Nylon Washers In-Between The Christmas-Tree Rivets.

So, If You're Alright With A "Hardware Only Mounted Kit"?

RhinoLip Has This Promo: Including A Std. Basic Hardware Install Kit For The Trade On RhinoLip's Request To Snap-&-Share eMail Us Back A Few Pic's Of Your Car "RhinoLip'ed".

RhinoLip® Previously Offered To Refund Shipping Fees For The Courtesy Of Emailing Back Those Pic's But The Std. Hardware Install Kit Is The Much Better Deal.

It Gets You Everything You Need In One Place For A Standard Installation (A $5.00USD Value Compared To The Shipping Fee Refund).

A Typical Installation Takes About An HOURS Time.

Yeah, it's NOT "E-Z", It's NOT 10 Minute 3-Step Easy-Peezy Crap Install.

We "Get That". Hope You'll Appreciate Doing It Right The 1st. Time.

Hardware Installed? For a Tough To Install Tough Enough To STAY Installed "Install".

So? Lets Get Started & Get Your Car "RhinoLip'ed"!!.

(Sorry, These PICS Are as BIG as eBay allows....we actually have FULL SIZE PICS But when we tried to up-load them all??

eBay SCOWLED an error message at us stating they only allowed 10 total pic's in these guide-outlines so, hate-&-blame the eBay machine & don't hate & blame on us, mmmmkay??).

Get All The Essential "Stuff" To Safely, SAFELY Do A RhinoLip® Installation.

(Rhino-Ramps Naturally Are RhinoLip's Proposed Choice To "Lift" The Car Up Safely).

YES! Get it Safely Jacked Up & Accessible!

Now? Go Get Your "Not Your Mothers Ice-Tea" Favourite Beverage,

& Lets Get Ready To:

RhinoLip®!:

GoPro, GoLow,

....& EAT The Street!!.

You'll need the following:

1 - RhinoLip® Kit

1 - FRESH Sharpie,

1 - Screw-Driver

Maybe Some 1/2" Wide Blue-Tape
(To Outline Where to Position The RhinoLip For The Best Results!)

1 - Measuring Tape (Cloth, Ruler, Or Metal Retracting Type),

1 - Sheet-Metal Cutters Or Strong Scissors,

1 - Cordless Drill & 1/4" (6mm) or slightly smaller Drill bit.

1 - Hammer (It's Been Found Helpful "Seating" The Christmas-Tree Rivets Snugly)

Mark Your Mounting Points With A Sharpie!.

RhinoLip's Recommendation?: Mounting Points every 3.5 - 4" Spacing on The Straights.

***Note, Please!: If Your Car Is "Stanced", "Slammed", "Lowered", "Slow-&-Go", Or "Bagged"?:

You'll Need To DOUBLE The Mounting Points & Space Them Every 2" Using A Bolstering Method (Like Diebond strips, Metal Duct-Hanging Strap [with the holes in it], On The Mounting Points.

Why?, Well, On A RhinoLip?, The Weakest Link IS The "Mounting Points".

With Mounting Points Measured & Marked?,

Please NOTE How The RhinoLip MOUNTS Up Into Place.

Don't Worry!!, The RhinoLip Folds DOWN To A 45° Angle Once Fully "Installed".

A RhinoLip'er Suggested Hack & Mod: Creating a "Straight-Edge" on the Nylon-Washer.

This Straight-Edge Aligns With The 1st. Crease On The Mounting Strip, (The VIEW Is From Up Underneath)

This Keeps The Front Part Of The RhinoLip® That Is "Seen" From being "DIMPLED".

Ok, ONE MORE TIME: PLEASE REMEMBER How The RhinoLip® Mounts Up & To The Car.

RhinoLip's Recommendation? Alternate The Self-Tapping Screws & Nylon Washers In Combination With The Christmas-Tree Rivets.

RhinoLip'ers Recommendations?? Use ONLY The Christmas-Tree Rivets On Straight Middle Areas.

Use the Self-Tapping Screws On The Curves/Radius Areas On Either Ends.

It's Up To YOU: Just Pre-Think Everything: "Plan Your Work & Then Work Your Plan".

STARTING POINT: Middle Of The Bumper/Fascia Area & Middle Of The RhinoLip.

Work To Install ONE Side At A Time. Taking your Time & Doing It Carefully.

NOTICE: How To Start "Punching Holes". What You See Closest To The Installer?

Is the RhinoLip® Mounting Strip Area.

It's EASIER to Punch Holes As You Install Because??:

YOU'LL ABSOLUTELY NEED TO SLIGHTLY PULL & STRETCH THE RHINOLIP® OVER

TO THE NEXT MOUNTING POINT TO ENSURE A TIGHT & TAUT INSTALLATION.

So Punch The Holes As You Go Along, remembering to slightly STRETCH The RhinoLip To The Next Mounting Point. Using The Hole-Punch To Punch The Mounting Holes Exactly Where YOU Deem Them Needed & Necessary. Hole-Punch "Punched Hole" Circled In Yellow.

Like Previously Stated:

STARTING POINT: Middle Of The Bumper/Fascia Area & Middle Of The RhinoLip®.

Work To Install ONE Side At A Time. Taking your Time & Doing It Carefully.

***Use A Hammer To FIRMLY Seat The Christmas-Tree Rivets IN As SNUG As Possible***

(On This Car & for Demonstration Purposes? We Opted To Do ONLY The Middle Section)

Cut-Off The RhinoLip® Ends (Straight Or Angled) For A Keenly-Clean Finish.

Now Start On The Other Side As Carefully & Methodically As The Other Side Was Done.

Finishing Up With The Final Self-Tapping Screw or Push-Rivet.

Cut-Off The RhinoLip® Ends (Straight Or Angled) For A Keenly-Clean Finish.

Voila! Now The RhinoLip's Installed?

You Can Fully Finish Your "Not Your Mothers Ice-Tea" Favourite Beverage.

You Look Cool, You're Car Looks Cool....& Congratz & Kudo's On A Job Well Done!.
