Yes. An 01-02 lip is what you need. You can switch out the bumpers between the 98-00 and the 01-02 bumper, but the lip you got is just for the 98-00

Yes, you have an 01-02 front bumper. Probably changed by previous owner..

Or, are you sure you have a 99?

Yeah i'm positive I have a 99 100% positive. Just ran my vin # to triple check myself.

Is this common to be changed?

And I shall be calling that company and i'll have them drop ship me a 01-02 coupe lip!

Chances are a previous owner needed a new bumper and assumed all coupe bumpers are the same. Simple mistake

:lawl: Its funny that people are questioning the year of your car

If you were going by the lip in the first pic, that is a Mugen lip for a sedan, so right there is the start of the problem.

At least you now have a spare lip that you can sell off and use the funds for another project.
