my friend used the lip from a 92-95 Civic EX. Requieres drilling holes on the bottom of the bumper. The lip doesn't fit right, unlike on the 92-95 hatches and coupes, i guess because the bumper is designed different.

Sorry for pic quality, not enough lighting and no tripod

The deciding factor for me would be about proportionality. the 99-00 si (si-r) lip looks really good if you have a rear spoiler or some other kit to go along with it:


this is probably not a good picture, but by itself, i feel like the si lip looks to big:


*From what i've heard from other users, in order to get the si-r lip to fit, youd have to cut off about 1inch from each sides to get it to fit*

but if you just want that subtle, yet aggressive look, then the 92-95 civic lip looks really nice:


here's mine:


*But for the civic lip, i hear different stories that it fits like a glove and some say it doesnt fit at all, and others say it fits but you'd have to stretch it like a ****. I was in the last group. at first it did not fit, but all i had to to do is clamp down the sides, stretch the lip up as far as i could (close to where the black and the paint meet) and used self-tapping screws and just started screwing them in to tighten the lip.*

I think these are Mugen's? somebody correct me if i am wrong, but i think they look good too:



I hope this helped

the owner of that car says its a si-r "style", so it is a knockoff from ebay. You could get an oem lip for a 99-00 civic si, but those come painted from the factory. the knockoff's from ebay come primered so you can paint them whatever color you want.

One more question on that black SOL. You guys think the side skirts are left unpainted or painted? Would it look nasty if I Painted my side and left the SIR lip unpainted?
