If you used sheet metal screws into the plastic bumper, then this is your problem.

Solution: pull the bumper off (10 minute job, instruction in DIY section of this forum) and mount with bolts/washers on both sides/nuts.

I've had the bumper off about 5 times now, it really is very simple.

Mounting a lip without pulling the bumper is not sufficient (you're not the first here with this question)

I could not get double sided sticky tape to stick on my either (carbon fiber version) so I've used aluminum rivets in five places; do this only if you like the rivet look and don't mind drilling into your bumper

I drilled the holes on the lip to match the existing bumper holes and used 1nch 8mm screws that fit into the existing brackets.

9 holes, 9 screws, 9 3/16 washers and 3M (20lbs capable) double sided tape only at the top line...
