Got a front lip- is it a C55 or C32 Lip? PICS!

Hey Guys, I bought a front lip from the classifieds section here in MBWorld.

It seems that the fitment is debatable.

I told the seller that is was for my C32...

I posted some pics to see what you guys think?

Is this a C55 front lip or a C32 lip?

Thanks for the help!

AAH! Michael, thanks for the help! The fitment is pretty crappy. I was just test fitting it in the garage. One end hangs over the bumper like an inch and the other sits just fine. I'll post some pics in the morning. Hopefully this isn't a C55 lip lol

Thanks for your help man

Dang thanks man, I'm pretty sure its a C32 lip. I've been reading and everyone says that they are impossible to test fit the first time. Once you get some bolts in there though it becomes easier. I'll text you some pics when and IF i get it done this weekend. Homework... lol

EDIT: This looks just like the lip I received... Damn, it.

You know what, I keep looking at pics of the lip from other cars and I just cannot tell which lip it is.

Regardless, I just did some more test fitting and it's not too bad. There's a slight gap on one side where the bumper meets the lip but the other side fits like a glove! This is what is throwing me off...
