Lip fit

I've searched, but have found nothing. I've got a coupe and purchased an OEM lip for a sedan because I was told it would fit a coupe. I tried it out today and it doesn't seem to fit. Am I doing something wrong or am I just SOL and it won't fit???

It will fit. Just wedge it on real tight.

The front ends for both coupe and sedan are the exact same (with the exception of the grill and headlights) so it should all bolt up.

when I put the lip on it goes further/wider than my front bumper and it touches my front tires. Have you had this issue before?? If I were to drive it this way I would have some rubbing.

attaching it on, will come within 1-2 cm from my tires. It also hangs just a couple of inches off the ground. My car is not lowered either. The lip does not fit over my bumper at all. Instead it could attach on the bottom, but then I have these problems.

I thought it might be, but it is defenitely for the front. I bought it from another member and they said it would fit a coupe (off their sedan).
