Yea I have the lip too and in that picture it's mounted like 3 inches too high, when you mount yours if you get one put 3m double sided tape on the middle section (under the grill part) and then line it up, and stick it on but let it rest on where it's molded to.

It's supposed to sit ON the bumper with only tape between.. that lip was mounted with two tennis ***** sitting between the bumper and lip from the looks of it.

If the lip was installed by the dealer, and they followed the installation instructions (which I would assume they did), then yes - front bumper gets 6 slots cut into it. Link to the instructions below.
