aero lip install question

so im putting on my front lip and im going to use double sided 3m tape, but there is a clear plastic cover on my front bumper. Is it ok to go ahead and stick the lip on there or will it not hold good enough unless i take the plastic off?

thanks

What is this clear plastic cover you speak of?

The aero lip sits directly on top of the original SE bumper.

Clear plastic film put on cars to prevent rock chips and whatnot. Very common

Go ahead and stick it on. It's actually better than attaching it to bare paint, since the clear bra makes it more reversible.
