Looks great- I have the same prob. I cut out the bumper w/ a Dremel and bought a crappy rubber lip from Honda but still looks bad. What exactly did you do then? Were you able to mount it up higher? I know that the two IC pipes are JUST in the space around to the front of the car so I think it would be only a matter of mm I could move it. PM me if your fix is a long one- thanks!

ok well... when u cut the bumper i noticed basically i cut off the track for the black strip... leaving hard but not impossible to install.. BUT when u install it .. it doesnt have enough support.. so it looks like crap.
I took very small screws and screwed the lip and tentioned it on the bumper... allowing it to stretch around the bumper and look stock.
i didnt touch the IC'er mounting position at all.
