Lip for Silvia bumper?

Done a bunch of searching, no real answer. I know the obvious solution for an add-on lip to the S13 Silvia K's or Q's bumper is the "pig nose" USDM lip, but I've never cared for the way that looks.

SO, I'm wondering if there are other lips that fit (aside from the JDM add-on that you can never find). The B13 SE-R guys discovered that the lip from some years of the Mazda 626 fit more or less perfectly on the Sentra, and IIRC some Accord and VW lips do the same.

Has anyone tried a junkyard solution like this on the S13 w/Silvia bumper?

Yeah, I'm considering that, but I need to find out how much lower it hangs than the stock bumper. My garage entry/exit is pretty funky, and might negate any kind of lip at all

Any other thoughts?

Just as an aside, I saw an OEM lip for sale on YAJ once. It was new old stock (NOS), and they wanted $700 for it.
