Default problem installing lip

So I bought an abs plastic mugen lip for my 96 ls and i have a problem fitting it onto my bumper. The fitment seems fine but the side won't strech far enough to wrap around the the fender wells. Has anyone had this problem? any suggestions would be helpful

you just have to pull it. It's hard to make fit because it's supposed to fit tight. If it just slid right on, chances are it would be a little lose.

I have no idea what lip I have, cause it came on the car when I bought it, but, if I take it off wehnever I put it back on it gives me a little trouble.

Get one side pretty much installed, then pulled the other side of the lip a little bit away from the car, then pull it towards the back of the car super tight. That should help.

I have OEM ITR, with whole OEM Optional kit... I would take that over any lip or kit. However the mugen is nice!!!
