Front ek lip (pre-facelift)

**Killa From Manila** · 09-11-2009 09:01 PM

what he wants is the oem ek9 lip, the 1 hes talking about that he doesnt want is the 96-98 type r style lip (pos replica 1) that every1 advertises, but looks nothing like the real type r lip.

But i can't see any major difference between that and the ctr one

sorry for the confusion but exactly what Killa From Manila said is what i was trying to say.

the "type R style lip" is the facelift type R lip which people make to fit the 96-98 front bar, im not looking for that.

im looking to see if anyone sells a replica of the prefacelift ek9 lip which covers more of the front bar (the one shown in the first pic). the oem ek9 lips are too pricey.

thanks for the heads up.

**EK1.6LCIV** · 10-11-2009 02:01 PM

then the need to specify how they intend to ship the bastard of a lip

some sellers over there will send it like they would thro the continential usa which is wrapping it in plastic and that's it lol

ensure they at least go to the effort to put something that won't allow the mid section and sides to be flexed, otherwise you'll find out all to quickly the fun and enjoyment of repairing abs plastic to get it back to normal

most can be had and shipped for under $100 if you look on the bay

The two differences:

Pre-facelift type r lip.

Facelift Type R lip.

The pre-facelift type r lip is alot more rare IMO and gives the car a bit of a unique look because not many cars these days have it.. Ive also got one myself, a genuine honda one. and it looks REALLY good with my yellow square foggies.

my car looks exactly like this.. but in starlight black pearl paint. best look for ek IMO
