ive seen guys on her before use that stuff. To me, it seems stupid/ghetto. Just save a little money and find some time to go to a yard and get a freakin lip off another car.

so those lips are factory sorry for the newbe question not to familiar with them

no they're basically cheap plastic universal ones. it's easy to cut and bend to the shape of any car. and it's just direct screw on. like kevin said, they're mad get-o.

the 88 teg lip is the best looking factory lip that will some what fit our cars. i think they look better than the crx lip and require less mnodification to fit. i think they there talking about the floor molding lip

here's the teg http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/2/web/566000-566999/566138_60_full.jpg

ohhh btw the 88-89 teg lip is diff then the 86-87, the 88-89 is harder to fabricate.

I think the DIY one looks like crap, i'd much rather mod one out of the J/y to fit and actually have it look like a car part, not just some flimsy vinylish plastic screwed to my car.

pretty neat for a cheap mod

That is good idea for a cheap quick mod. Don't look like it is worth it to me. I wouldn't do that. If you look at it good, it has some waves on the bottom cause it isn't stiff enough to mold to the bumper. The silver screws have to be painted also. Some ghetto lip looking broke food stamp packing action. That molding needs to stay on a baseboard and not on a car or at Lowes. Nice looking Schnawzer though.

Don't take my comment to harm. Just my .02 cent like other people said.. Some other person said it looks ghetto too, look back in the thread. I have Konis for the front and Suspension Tech springs for my drop BTW 2.25" in the front & 2" in the back, just had a baby & waiting to drop...... I been looking for some Tokicos to do the drop, but got some riff-raff, so I will be dropping my car after my schedule is cool with it. Looks like it will be in about 2 weeks. I will post some pics. After that, some rims will be happening. Just keep your eyes open.


Got a pic for your remark......

CRX chin spoiler on the front of the car

IMHO the CRX lip is the best looking chin spoiler.

I've personally never been much of a fan of the chin spoliers but, for those that do like them that's a great way to make them cheaply!

U guys think that a 90 accord full lip kit will on 3gee cars

house trim shit is soo wack. Its kinda similar to the gutter guard stuff that people were talking about liek couple of years back. That was retarded. But like said above, i think CRX lip spoiler is the best ever. IM loving mine. ;)


U guys think that a 90 accord full lip kit will on 3gee cars

no they wont. a 4g front bumper is too small on the bottom and ends up too short around. WE have guys who have fit a 5g front lip and from what they say it looks like a direct bolt on with little modification.

Does anybody know which full lip kit will fit on 3gen cars?

88accordhb
03-04-2005, 07:43 PM
there's tons, you can get any off of any car that had a squarish front end. some lips pple has done include,

mazda 626
crx gen 1
gen1 integra 86-89
5th gen accord
volvo

that's to name a few. the crx and 626 lip, you will need 2 to make one. the integra one i would recommend cuz it fits pretty well and you only need one. the 86-87 integra lip is easier to fab than the 88-89 but the 88-89 looks alot nicer imo.

side skirts you can get the aftermarket ones off erebuni, i think they might have them. or you can get the older z24 cavalier side skirt if you have a coupe or hatch. rear lip you can do the crx or anything that seems about the size of our rear bumpers. but nothing is just bolt on and take pics. you have to do work for a full lip kit.

I remember searching that a while back since my friend was going to give me his stock lip from his 5g...it will fit after you take a section out of the middle front because stock it is too wide, but otherwise it is supposed to be bolt-on.

well 5th gen is 93, 94, 95, 96 and 97 (all years including). So which years actually fit??
90-93 if 4th gen 94-97 is 5th gen

smufguy

90-93 if 4th gen 94-97 is 5th gen

i dotn knwo wtf i was thinking, lol yeah ur right.

And what about the rear? is there any kinda lip that can be grafted to our rear bumper? I know the crx lip was used for the rear too, but i would like to have something like the current gen civic rear flare kinda, u know the one that goes from the mudflap and tapers up to the rear?

Man those are some good looking lips. I just got a 1st gen integra lip from the junkyard yesterday for my hatch. I lined it up with my bumper and it looks like a perfect fit! I'll post pics when I put it on. I decided to paint it gloss black while it was off ot the car.

88accordhb
03-05-2005, 04:25 PM
the 94-95 5g lip will fit.

as for rear, i have no idea. all the oem stuff is too small anyways, like the 5th gen accord rear lip or the 4th gen. it would be too subtle if you put that on.

94-95 accord has the lip that will fit.

the 96-97 had a smaller lip with the slight comestic changes for the years. Its like the 87 integ lip vs the 88 lip in a sense. They are from the same gen but different comestic versions of the lip. The 97 one is significantly smaller that the 95 lip. I think I will get a 95 lip soon. CT, wanna help me install?
