Default super low budget front lip for 92-96 prelude

ive had a front bumper for a 93 legend in my parents shed for about a year now....posted it on local craigslist and not one phone call. about a month ago my buddy bought a 92 prelude as a replacement for the hatch he totalled....big downgrade in my eyes. not because of the car but becuase of the difference in condition between the two.....mind you the hatch was pretty mint and the prelude is....rotted, dented, interior worn out....but its slowly getting cleaned up......well he was trying to find some kind of a front lip....and everything was expensive so i decided to try out the oem lip from the legend bumper on the prelude....this is what we discovered.....its just the legend front lip mounted under the bumper, whats your opinion

It looks ok..Probably looks fine from far away, however close up, it looks like exactly what it is, 2 stock lips smashed together. meh
