Default lip kit question /altezza bumper

I'm not in the rush to get a lip kit, but im looking around to see what exists for our cars..im looking at the chargespeed front lip...however, the site says only fits altezza bumpers.

What's the difference with the altezza front and the usdm front? Has anyone attempted to install a chargespeed lip on usdm bumpers?

Altezza bumpers are shorter so you would literally need to cut the lip on each end and extend it. Trust me its more work than you wanna get into.
Also if you want an altezza bumper you will have to either remove or modify your front crash bar to fit the bumper or get an altezza one if you can find one ($250). I got lucky with my altezza bumper and it fits USDM but its also rare as *** the Qualitat
