04-06 A-spec front lip HELP!

I ordered a a-spec front lip from my local acura dealership. Picked it up today, came home, opened the box and this is what I have...

I have an 05.

This doesn't look like the a-spec I see in pictures for the 04-06. Maybe I am just missing that grey part? Maybe they gave me an 07-08 a-spec lip? Am I trippin??

That is actually the a-spec lip for the 07-08 base model.

Thanks guys. Now I gotta do a 2 hour trip to do the exchange. Great... Not to mention my rad went on me on the way back from the getting the lip.

Oh, and has anyone fitted a 07-08 lip on an 04-06 ??

You have the lip right there! Try it yourself lol. I doubt it though, the lower grill for 07-08 is bigger due to the fogs.

When you go and pick up the correct lip, open and check the lip in the dealership, there could always be a defect and it could save you yet another 2hr trip

Too bad they didn't give you the type-s front lip so you can test it on the base bumper.

I doubt the type-s will look right on the 04-06 bumper.

& I only got the front, it was on sale for 250 with taxes. The rear they wanted 650 or something...
