Im trying to get one of the lower lips for my 00 civic. Im not sure which one i like more, the mugen or the SI(type-r). Has any one bought one of these lately> I keep finding some for $65-90, are these going to be pieces of trash or will they work.

Also I need to find a good fitting type-r upper grill for my car, I bought one from ebay but the damn thing does'nt fit, its some piece of shit knock off that I see every where. Where can I get one of those that actually fit and look good.

Thanks guys

You need to visit a shop in your area... that way if you get the wrong thing, it's their fault and you can give blame to them.

the front lip on my car is a replica piece that i bought for $100. abs plastic, its pretty strong.

get the mugen front lip, it looks sweet. get an Si upper grill, then you know it'll fit perfectly.

slow ej6- is your grill the upper SI grill, cause I am looking for a front end just like yours. So the Mugen lip on your car is a replica and its made out of abs and you like it. I thought that abs would be a way better way to go than fiberglass since it is more flexible. Oh ya where did you get your stuff at?? Thanx

well i have a 96-98 front end, so i just custom made the grill like that with some mesh.
yah its a replica of the 99-00 mugen style lip made to fit the 96-98 front end.
i got my stuff on www.groupbuycenter.com from the seller "yellowtyper" - great prices from him and quick shipping too, i highly suggest buying from him - he has the grills too if you want, they fit very nicely.

cheap lips might be ok, but definitely make 100% sure its urethane and not fiberglass..

b/c if u hit anything with a fiberglass lip, it will mosl likely crack right away..

especially those dang parking blocks..

dude urethane ****ing roxors, i got a front bumper like that, OMG i can kick it
i hurt my foot on it once

urethane front lips arent easy to come by, and they are expensive. abs plastic works just fine.

so this thing just attaches to the bottom of the bumper right? Ive been looking into these too but I cant tell if anything is taken off or if this is just drilled and put onto the bottom. Same for the rear?

This might be a little late.. but I still give my .02 hehe... If your looking for a good fitting grill.. You might as well get the Si front grill.. You can buy the Si front grill from a honda dealership.. That's where I got mine.. Its probably going to cost you about $150 but if you have a hook-up.. It will be half the price.

**Thanks Mikey** But it fits like a glove

You get what you pay for
