Fellas,
Which 03- 05 Front Lip do you Prefer:
1. OEM
2. JDM EuroR
I can get my hands on both and I can't decide... but the EuroR Lip is ~$300 more expensive than OEM

what sides + rear will you be using?
imo the oem gives the car a more classy look whereas the euror provides the sport image.
I personally like the oem lip better, But for the 'rare' factor i would go Euro R lol.
buy both if ur a baller
chop n change lips for fun.
lol after reviewing my own pictures, i would use the oem :p
i prefer the euro r =)
I prefer the euro-r. It has more detail imo - looks nicer.
Ill be using euro R Sides and Rears...Quote:

mugen.
firstly.......
how are yoeeeuuu
get the OEM looks fatter, even Jun has the euro R lip on his car and now he likes OEM
save 300 put it on black :)
oem for sure
i was faced with this decision - oem way better
I'd go for the euro-r. It flows with the car so much better. The oem looks like a cheap protrusion off the front bar imo. Each to their own, i like the smoothe look of the cl9, which is why i'd go euro-r without a doubt :)
^ lol i would have thought the oem would best be described as smooth.

I have seen euro-r front with oem sides and rear but not the other way around. Maybe you can give it a shot, might look nice.
oem kit looks fat but honestly they r both hot, heres mine it all depends on the look ur after like in my case i recon a euro r lip will look crap on my car

edit: i think this is 06 +
indeed it is, but for the 03-05 i think both oem and euroR looks better than mugen.
I agree, both kits are look good and better than Mugen kit. I saw a black Euro with Mugen style kits, it looks too fat and not smooth on Euro. I got a OEM kits and better match with the car. I got it from JunYu. Still waiting the plastic trim to come. He sold the kit for me without the plastic trims for side skirts. Make sure you get a whole kit. otherwise very hard to get the parts separate.
i love that look that is soo fat its a whole differant look to other euros i rate it tho i like itQuote:

mugen front is about 900 painted lol.
Where is good place to get quote on OEM kits? I checked a couple of Honda dealers in Brissie and they were wayyy to expensiveQuote:

Will you be getting the OEM side-skirts and rear lip?Quote:

Ive seen oem and euro-r front lip and stock side and rear, didnt look too bad.Quote:

Based on this photo it has to be OEM for sure! It looks heaps better in this shot.Quote:

every1 has their own opinions as to what kit you should choose, but i think its simple u have two choice, a smooth sleek look, more towards a simple classy look or a litte bit more xtreme with the R kit, its a bit more detailed and has that sportier look IMO i like both to be quiet honest, but once again i recon it depends on the style like my euro will look stupid with the euro R kit i have a smooth simple look, where as some other ones i have seen look awsome with the euro R Kit :)Quote:

If i am not wrong , the K24 is an upgraded version of the K20 engine.
The ECU is de-tuned from the K20A engine , the intake manifold is also different and the pistons are also different in Compression Ratio.
Maybe this is where the extra 20 ponies come from!!!!!
Hope it helps.
