Replica Lip Spoilers? Who has the best quality and fitiment?
Been shopping for Front and Rear Lip for my EK hatch (99-00). I have seen some crazy deals w/ shipping on eBay. The problem is I want a lip that has a reasonably similar mounting method of attachment like the OEM Si Spoiler. Most of the ones online look like they just screw in the sides and maybe some 2 sided tape. I dont mind dumping $150 into a lip (urethane or ABS) front or rear. As long as the quality is there. Some of the ABS stuff's quality is very poor and no hardware.
Any suggestions? I used "SEARCH" but its stuff about ITR Comptech Lips or 96-98.
Let me know what you suggest.

Becuase normal people aren't as argessively money hungry as corporations? Yeah that's what i think too
I don't trust the fitment of most aftermarket products though. They are generally hit or miss and it depends on the batch made

If you wanna spend that much on a lip just go to honda and buy a new one.
They aint that much.

I checked w/ a good friend at Honda and the best deal he could get me was $215 on an OEM Si front lip. Which isnt bad for OEM....but still about $65 more than I wanted to put into it. Gotta be someone making Urethane knock-off some where? Certi-fit maybe?? Probably not....

If you look around I am sure you can find a used one for a decent price. Try eBay for example. I have seen many aftermarket, knock off lips and all have fitment issues some way or another.
Its up to you though, whats more important...good fitment or low cost? Because you will not get both.

Um no. He works for a dealership. He doesnt set the prices. Not his fault. Thanks for the healtoe.com address.

**update** healtoeauto.com doesnt sell the 99-00 Si lip. (atleast not at the moment) They sell the 96-98 SIR Lip. Which is a kick *** part. Wish it fit the 99-00. I'd be on that like ugly on an ape.
