Front Bumper

When you buy a front bumper cover, is the lip supposed to come with it? Reason being I bought a new front bumper but the lip didn't come with it, and I just want to make sure I'm not being shafted.

On 99-01 bumper there is a small piece on the bottom of the bumper. Its about 1 inch or so thick. To me this is part of the bumper and should have been included. Look at picture below.

blh_tl is this what your talking about?

Well, I thought it should have came with the bumper also, but the guy at the bodyshop said it does come with it, he said it costs extra.
