Default Not sure why my font lip doesn't fit new bumper

I have a 2004 Z and I recently had a front lip on that bumper. I had to get a new front bumper so I bought one of a guy but he was unsure what year the front bumper is. Me being new to Z's I can't tell what year the front bumper is. Today I tried to put my old front lip on this new bumper and it doesn't fit. The front lip is now too short to fit on the new bumper. Can anyone help me why this is? Or what year this new bumper might be? Thanks in advance

The lip is probably for a 2003-2005 front bumper. You have a 2006+ front bumper on there now.

^100% it

2006+ bumpers are shaped differently and even use different fender liners.

If you decide to run fender liners, make sure you order the ones for an 06 and newer
