If you're talking about the Arkym rep...then yes, kinda... I have the real Arkym, but I would assume it installs the same way.
I hope you didn't use the OEM bolts, they're too short to keep both the lip and the bumper in place. I also used double sided tape for the front. I bought the screws from Home Depot. They're #8 1 inch screws and I paired them with 1 inch washers also bought from Home Depot.

Clay the bumper and clean both bumper and lip with IPA then heat it up. Let it sit for awhile with painters tape for support and do not drive or wash it.
