Aspec rear lip question

Has anyone removed the 04-06 aspec lip and installed the 07+ type-s aspec lip? I was wondering if the four screws that bolt the aspec lip to the bumper will line up with the type-s aspec lip. I know that I will need to cut the exhaust area for the new lip to fit.

04/06 - 3 holes.

07 types - 4 holes.

The 2 outer edge holes line up with 07 studs.

Third center hole is "center". Use this to measure the distance between the other 2 holes, and make the marks for the 2 new holes.

Thanks Kennedy! I was thinking about buying the type-s bumper, but then I would need to buy the aspec lip to complete the look. Just buying the type-s aspec lip would be the cheaper route.

Any ideas how much hacking of the stock bumper exhaust area is necessary?

Question.. I also purchased a Type-S spoiler, but I had no original lip spoiler.
Does anyone have a template for the Aspec lip so I can at least start from their?

Lam,
Here are the directions on what and how to hack up the 04-06 rear bumper to fit the 2007 Type-S lip to it... I just did this to install the ATLP quad exhaust and couldn't be happier.

Lam is talking about the lower lip body kit. You're talking about the trunk lip.

Mounting holes are in different locations for the OEM aspec trunk lip and TL-S trunk lip. I removed the aspec to install the TL-S version.
