Default the silicone seal between the oem lip and bumper

well i bought an oem style lip and got it painted, and it looks great. fitment is pretty close too, but what i noticed on oem lips that you buy from honda, it comes with that small silicone seal between the lip and the bumper.

being that i didnt get this, is it possible to just buy that seal seperately? or does anyone else have any other ideas to seal it up? that seal does work good, in that it prevents dirt, debris, etc from slipping in, and also fills the gap between the lip and bumper.

any input would help out, thanks!

Consider getting a tube of black silicone seal and cut the tip so it squeezes out a small bead of goo. Practice a bit on something else and then squeeze a bead of it onto the lip/bumper interface.

The black oem gasket is part of the oem lip and can't be bought seperately.

I have seen people here who buy replica OEM lips go to stores like Lowes or Home Depot and make their own. It shouldn't be too difficult. FYI, the rubber seal is different colors depending on the color of the lip. My Grand Prix White lip has a grey colored seal.
