I installed my OEM front lip and the front center portion is about 1/8 inch off the front bumper. Is this normal or how do I fix it?? I have a pic, but how do I post on the actual posting??

 

Mine sits flush.. Did you put all the 10mm in underneath the lip?

 

Do I tighten the screw until I cant anymore?? I was using my ratchet and didnt want to tighten too much.

 

Mine fits flush. Do you have a very small/thin black seal running along the top edge of the spoiler where it (should) meet the bumper?

 

Don over tighten the 10mm.. Just enough so its tight. Ravenwerk is right. There should be a rubber seal along the edge of the lip and should be flush on the front bumper.

 

Do our front lips need a strip of 3m tape to properly seat against the bumper? Asking because my Prelude does.

I tightened the center bolt fairly tight, but I dont want to go any tighter. I do have the black trim piece and it is off by tiny bit

 

strange... did you bolt the sides down first? maybe they're too high up causing the middle section not to sit flush

 

jbotstein1,
The bolt holes in the lip tabs are larger than necessary. Try the tightening sequence starting in the middle of the spoiler first. Press in so the lip is flush before tightening. Put the end screws in last. Hope that helps. Is is possible that the front end has been damaged in a prior accident enough to warp it somewhat?
Good luck.
