I thought this was the CTR lip?
But the owner says its a 'Honda access front lip' (think hes from ozhonda). Ive never heard of that before, is that an acctual lip, if so any one know where from and how much?

Yea, i think the 96-98 looks better, although i didnt think the type R's had side skirts? And no one ever has them on their car?

Incorrect. As the 1st poster indicated it is a Honda Access front lip (for those of you that dont know, Honda access are OEM optional parts).

Send me a PM if you want more details.

[misteR_bilzz]

ahh true i got it mixed up with the type r style looks similar. mybad!

[andiiso]

yea there is an ek4 front lip thats optional when bought from honda (genuine part) and also rear lip aswell, alot fatter then the CTR one and goes lower too. I didnt know this till i saw it on dynastys car and he told me all bout it.

[mrwillz]

I got the front lip for a 96-98, looks like Fernando's (spacepants_fb) one.
Paid $150 for it, I'm after $100 pickup in Liverpool area. Black and made of ABS plastic, not fibreglass. Also have a rear lip to fit a EK coupe/sedan, from JDMsh!t, paid $180 will also sell $100, black ABS plastic.

i rang honda and they said they where going to get back to me with a p&a so i am playing the waiting game at the moment

[1996ek1]

Is there any advantage to a ABS plastic lip compared to fibreglass?
Id imagine it wouldnt crack like fibreglass?

And what is most prefered, ABS or FG?
And what is the CTR lip made of?

[philBo]

honda access lip for 96-98 civics are hot hot hot. looks way more aggressive than the type R style one which is a lot more subtle (read: bland)

This has been discussed in the past (so have a bit of a search), but generally ABS is the best material. Front and rear bumpers are made from ABS plastic as they are more flexible and are superior in terms of quality.

If you get a genuine CTR or Access lip they are made of ABS.

[1996ek1]

Does the access lip sit lower, or is it just fatter because it also goes up?

I really need an answer, so if someone could please help me out ??
