The kit that i bought of eBay which i included the link i paid $63 shipped and that came with the lip and all the hardware to install it.. I took off my bumper to get it lined up. you will have to cut about 2 inches of each side as its to long.
Other then that it just a matter of screwing it in. You will have to bent it a little to make it fit. I did this on my own. I found no thread at all for this lip. I also painted my lip. I used BedLiner paint. The lip comes a blackish grey if you look at my first pix.
here are a few more pix for you guys...

The lip itself lowers the front 1.5 inches.. so i have to be more careful were i drive now.. all apart of being low 
turbodatfit: The eBay kit came with 8 screws which i used all of them. It also came with 4 push pin clips but i only used 2 of them. i used all the pre drilled holes. its not hard to install at all. start from the center and work your way out. you will be bending the lip in order to fit the bumper nice and snug.

yes you will have to take off the bar bc the lip sits there.. but the push pins are the same size as the honda ones so you will be good there.. the screws im sure you can get them at home depot, lowes, ace, or any hardware store.. hope that helps.. if you lived in florida i'd be more then happy to do it for you

What wheels do you have? The tint of them go well with the tow hook.
Debating here whether to do this mod. Damn you are low in front. While I have only scrubbed the corner of my lip a couple of times( mainly not paying attention) I suspect with this lip I would scrape it often. It would be rather low for the winter as well. But, on other hand I am running out of stuff to mod.

after the meet i might make the thread..But the wheels i have are Work Rozest's.. they are 16x7.. they were in rought shape when i got them. I had them redone and paint North Shore Blue pearl. The same color that comes on the CR-Z..
I drive outta the way so i dont scrub..takes me a little longer but its worth it..if i didnt do that the lip would have been knocked of the first day.. I seen Fitdeez has this lip as well but he put his on his mugen lip so he is EXTREMELY LOW
