that makes sense why the one on the actual car was bent up in the middle and sticker bombed.

you can get a nice polyurethane j's replica that will hold up. this one is for the jdm crx, but it fits 90-91 bumper and i made it fit an 88-89 bumper. it could probably be made to fit a hatch as well

Chargespeed lips aren't hard to get, i can import them all day... Authentic ones too...

Expensive though.

not much modification. the 3m tape was used and sucked, i used urethane adhesive to mount it. it's not going anywhere. i think the tabs by the fender are for support, but not really necessary.

Good to know I was wondering if the JDM lip would fit. As in I cannot find anything other than a JDM lip anyways.
