Do you have a link to that lip? Also how did you install it? Did it come pre drilled or did you have to drill your own holes?

lip was a universal kit on ebay. It came with side skirts & strut braces. I Had to drill holes & used self tapping screws to mount it .
I had the same one ,Without strut braces & I used the screws from the kit ..,NOT RECOMMENDED!.
The screws backed out & the wind flexed it enough to brake it .The struts had to be used .for stability &;I like the look
next time in Northern California look me up.

Feal 411 coilovers I have the same ones on my Miata and love them, rear swaybar, big brake kit, and HKS exhaust. Just got the valves adjusted at Mid City Honda and that was worth it.
