backyard special 
= function why? Because you can regulate the height obviously the lower the home depot special it lower to the ground the more function it is going to have
OEM/ebay = show NO GO because what half an inch is not going to do anything for performance SORRY i should say nothing that your *** dyno is going to feel LOL

Re: 99 civic front lip... (black_EM1)
yea sure no problem thanks for your interest!
look at nascar for example ok or even on the drag strip at the pro's
a lot of them have home made really low to the ground front lips that stops air from going under the car and causing it to raise up which will allow you to lose grip or hold on the road
but if you go with OEM then all it is going to before is show i guess i should have asked you if you race your car or not just read a lot of posts on this website about lips and i feel a lot of people do not understand the concept about fuction of a lip over show
i hope this helps?

And a racetrack. And speeds your Honda couldn't muster with the Hand of God pushing it.
You need to look up Vehicular Aerodynamics, Downforce, Grip, and Drag. Then you'll see how it works.

i understand he was not talking about the home depot lip but i just wanted to throw that one in for example or HELL even a choice rather then the usual RICED out all show NO go OEM front lips i am so tired of seeing GOD it is like the next APC/rice
personally if it dose not make you faster you do not need it just my opinion!
