Civic Coupe VTiR with/without rear lip?

**Alpine** · 18-07-2006 09:48 PM

I have noticed that some Civic Coupe VTiR models come complete with front and rear bumper lips, however there are others which only come with the front lip and no rear lip. Does anyone know why this is so? I always thought the rear lip came standard on the VTiR Coupes...but there are a few I've seen around without the rear lip. Just wondering why this is?

No rear lip:

Got lip:

just an option..

Yeah the body kit was only a factory option. Just more VTI-R owners opted for it/was thrown in for free when they bought the car

So was the front lip also just an option or was it standard?

Front lip and side skirts are standard.

Rear under-spoiler was an option.

Costs roughly $400-450 through Honda parts.

Nope.. mine came without the rear lip - cost me $100 OEM Honda.

Really? That's a bloody bargain...the last time I enquired about one (some 4 years ago admittedly lol), I was quoted somewhere in between $400-450...

$100 OEM from Honda?? Wow, that's alright...alot cheaper for the brand new genuine product than someone advertised for sale on this forum recently for an aftermarket one! Might give Honda a call and see if this is true and if so, they've just made a sale.

i believe they're much more than just $100..
~$450..

afaik, the front lip new from honda is like $600

Yep, 450's roughly the price I was quoted. $100 sounds very cheap and if it's true, I'll buy one myself!

I had to wait 2 months to get it - I'm not lying and I have no reason to. (?) But I beleive it was $150 not $100.

I found the receipt for the paint on the rear lip, my rear lip must have cost me $250 - $150 for the lip and $100 for the paint, because I remember it costing me $250.

Yes it was OEM Honda. Yes I bought it from a dealership.
