Lips?

[Mattphi]

What lips are there for our cars? I have heard of Volvo and Integra lips. Also what mods do you have to do to them to make them fit? Help me out guys :rockon:

[PortugalFocus]

CRX lips fit also, and if I remeber I think someone on here has a Legend or Vigor front lip.

There were stock lips for our cars, USDM and JDM, but I do believe they are pretty hard to get ahold of now. On the other hand just about any lip that is close to the contours of our car can be made to fit with some cutting(dremel) and some bending(heat gun). If you want to use a lip off of a car that is not as wide as ours you will need two lips and you must join them in the middle with epoxy or some other type of flexible glue.

Anyone know a good place to get a lip from? Ebay? Are there any good sites to shop off of?

I got my 5th gen accord lip directly from the dealership new. Only cost me like 30 bux.

[Mattphi]

how much modification did it need?

[AccordAddict]

yeah im lookin for a lip too. i bet it would look good if you used one of them big lips off of one of them old vans. or does anyone know how much an integra front bumper would cost new? like a 1st gen teg.

[HostileJava]

I havn't put it on yet but other members have, from what I understand it needs to be cut some and heated and molded slightly

[Mattphi]

i will definatly have to stop up at the dealership and ask for prices

pretty any lip will work if it's straight-ish and the same lenghth or longer than our bumpers. i say go to the junk yard and check em out. lips is an easy to make the car look lower and more agressive. lip at junk yard runs for bout 11 bucks. all custom work will require same thing. cutting, stappling, saudering, drilling, etc.

[hkplayer]

nice post 88!

i dont know, i am still wondering why ppl would change the lip without doing the rear bumper too? then again, i am just being stupid.

[88accordalltheway]

well, i dont think there is anything you can really do witht he back bumper. Dont we have a mini lip on the back already? maybe there can be another one that we could add onto that.

[88accordhb]

yes kevin, you guys got the lips in the back, not just hatch/dx bumper guys.

[88accordhb]

4g's have lips in the rear, maybe i should go get one. i don't know how it would fit over the back bumper tho

[Underdog]

Does anyone know how much custom work is required for the 1G CRX lip? I think that one looks the best, just wondering if it's more work than any of the others.

I bit more then some, you have to use 2 of them to make it wide enought to go all the way across our front bumpers.

[88accordhb]

i believe it's in the how-to's.

[Mattphi]

i am goin to the dealership tomorrow to pick one up...i wanna get one that wont be too much modification, should i go for the 1st gen teg lip?

[88accordhb]

hmmmm i dunno, mine fit pretty good. you gotta cut sections on the side, and staple with a flat piece of metal the ends to the main section, sauder over the staple so you cant see it. and do the drillin on the bumper.

http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/2/web/566000-566999/566138_61_full.jpg

that wierd ruff line on the side is where i connected the end piece to the main piece and melted extra plastic over it, i didn't sand it too well tho. hehe

[Mattphi]

I think i like the lip on Justins hatch and wicked's sedan the best. Are those 5th gen? What year would i ask for at the dealership? 94-95?

[Robs89LXi]

What Volvo is that Volvo lip from?

[88accordalltheway]

yea i was going to as the same thing, the volvo question. I really like it its alot bigger than the rest.

[88accordhb]

yes 94-95 will fit better, 96-97 is a bit longer or something

and as for the volvo lip, i think it's freakin awesome!! dunno which volvo tho, older modle

[Robs89LXi]

So who is the Mark you refer to with the Volvo lip? Can you pm him and find out what model/year?

[AccordAddict]

which lip requires the least amount of work? my bumper has some screws under it that could hold a lip easily, and i would use double sided tape for the ends, easy job for me.

[hondamanlxi]

they all re'q some work, nothing major, but some! just get a lip and work with it

[AccordAddict]

im'a go with that volvo lip, or the crx one.

[Busted_Blue]

94-95 lips.. lemme see if i can bring up a part number for ya.

Should be this. If you do go to the dealership ask them and tell them its number 3 on the diagram. :) have fun with it.

-Spoiler FR. Air Part # 71110-SV4-000



majestic holds it for around 30bucks so good luck on pricing!

[Mattphi]

ill be going tomorrow morning to ask...should it be $30 at all dealerships or will they be priced different do u think

[88accordhb]

marks a mod, goes by markmdz89hatch. i just pmed him bout the volvo lip.

every lip require some work, but not anything major, it was quite fun workin on mine. i only have done one lip so i don't know which fits better. but i do like the crx's lip and how it flares out, i might do that next.

[slowazz86carb]

Hmmm.i just saw a crx with the lip on it.I think ill go get it tomarrow.

[Mattphi]

Is this the same lip that Justin and Wicked have?

[88accordhb]

[Mattphi]

damn i cant seem to find that one...it really doesnt look like it will fit on our car tho...

[AccordAddict]

omg i called the honda dealership for a price on an 84 CRX lip and they want $77!!! im gonna go to a junkyard. But i cant find any junkyards in the fucking phone book.

[88accordhb]

GA is messed up, we have like 5 junkies around our place. pay for one, you get into all of them... and personally, i hate the dealerships. i bought a distributor o-ring for guess wat....5 effin' dollars! it's a freakin rubberband for christ's sake.

[Robs89LXi]

Still no word on the Volvo lip?

[Mattphi]

i am gonna measure my bumper today and head out to some junkyard with my friend, hes gettin a tranny for his ranger...i am gonna look around so HOPEFULLY i come back with somethin good!

[88accordhb]

nah, he hasn't answered bout the volvo lip

[Mattphi]

im pretty sure its from a Volvo 850...the body style is kind of similar and it looks like the lips i have seen for those.

[Mattphi]

Yeup...ordered my 94-95 Accord lip. It was $35.92...anyone know what all the mods are that have to be done to this to make it fit??

[88accordhb]

cutting, uhhh attaching pieces with flat mettal pieces, sauder extra plasting over the metal stapples, drillin into the bummper, bolt with clips (junk yard)

[Mattphi]

hey CT wanna do mine? :D

[Underdog]

Quick question, my friend is giving me his old 91 Accord lip, will it fit with minor modifcations or will it require extensive modifications?

[88accordhb]

prolly the same amount, uless it's short on the sides.

derick, come on down, i'll find a day when i'm not doing anything.

[markmdz89hatch]

OK, sorry for taking sooooooooo long to get back to everyone. The Volvo lip is from (this is just a guess here) early to mid 90's Volvos. It's very common, as it's on many different models, but you don't really even notice it's on them b/c of how it's mounted. It's kind-of tucked up, and back on the front bumper. You really have to be looking for it to find it. That one, just as the CRX, and 626 requires two complete lips to make one to fit the 3G. You'll need to lengthen/shorten the sides, and lengthen the center. I'll try and put together a how-to in the next few weeks as to what I've needed to do to make the two lips fit. I'm going to try a few others as soon as I can get to the j/y to get more lips.

[88accordhb]

thanx mark.

[AccordAddict]

do you really need two crx lips to make it work? ok which lips will work in one peice??
