It really depends on the individual lip, who makes them, the materials it is made from etc.Quote:

I will be geting them from "modproject" and its being made from abs
anyone ?
Is this the one you are looking at?
http://www.modproject.com.au/estore/...roducts_id=109
umm yeah i'd say that would be the one
I hadnt cheacked out hte pictures. on the site.. but yes thats it
Well, if that one is $187, I'd rather spend just a little bit more and get the genuine one. That way you will know it will fit and look perfect and there is no doubt involved. I got my genuine Type R front lip from JDMConcept for $245 delivered. But that's just my opinion on what I would do if I were in your shoes. :)
I didnt know you could get genuine ones still.
i will have a look..
just sent them a pm.
but only seems to me he has front lip.. i want rear as well :(
Yeah, I've been looking for a corresponding rear lip as well. Seems Modproject only has the fronts too. No rears.
i pm'd mod project he has some. think his user name was bowser
If the other guy dosnt have a rear i might jsut get front and rear replica's... ill ask him how they fit first though...
Oh, he has some rear lips? Genuine or aftermarket? How much? Pics?
$180 EM1 OEM STYLE REAR LIP (ABS)
At that price i'd say non genuine
$350 a piece if both front and rear lips are ordered?? But its $245 if you just buy the front lip on its own? Weird...
Apparently the genuine rear lips for our model are still available from Honda Spares. I've heard anywhere from $100 to $400-$500 for one of these. I haven't rung them yet to check the price though but it seems different people have gotten different prices from different Honda dealers...

I'm interested in getting another front lip for my EK.. since I scratch mine early on the year.. Mr Willz where did you get your replica lip?
I just bought a replica mugen lip for my 00 civic. It was not a good fit at all, was too short and was impossible for me to put on myself, so i took it to the panelbeater and he somehow streched and squeezed it on but ended up putting a crack in front bar. A month later its ended up cracking pretty well in half and is no good any more, due to stress i believe. Be careful what you buy... I am not happy at all. 300 bux down the drain
Zdster Edit - Waggy, I am going to remove this comment about where supersamEK purchased his lip (as it might be defamitory). Please keep that sort of discussion to PM.
i got myn for 50bux on the 'parts for sale' section on here, jus keep an eye outQuote:
