Default OEM Lip Install - Arghhhh !

I'm trying to install the Optional OEM lip for my 1992 HB.
I bought the screw kit.
The problem is; If I align the holes in the bumper with the holes on the lip, the lip fit like ****. (sits lower) Do I have to drill holes ? I tought every was OEM fit..

Well any help would be appreciated.
Thanx

you shouldn't have to drill holes. my ex/vx lip bolted right up with clip/nut hardware.

what does that factory hardware consist of anyways?

i just went to home depot, picked up some grade 8 nuts bolts and washers (cost a total of about 3 bucks) and the lip fit on perfectly.

Well, I'm pretty sure it SHOULD fit, maybe he bought a replica or just got ripped off?

A few of the oem lips that i have seen sit a little bit below where the painted part and the black part of the bumper.

It seems like the lip should cover up that black part but it doesn't.
