worth buyin authentic CTR lip?
wats up HT... just wondering if its worth spending the $$ on an authentic 96-98 ctr front lip.
or just getting one of these aftermarket replicas? I mean i know nothing will fit like OEM. But other than than will it look much different or mounting would be a pain in the ***? thanks

well ive never heard of these peeps... but apart that they sell a bunch a ricer equipment, the "ctr" lip does look a little flapped up in the front as unlike the ones of ebay.
I dunno correct me if im wrong.. its probaly the picture... im just trying to get the best of the aftermarket "ctr" which is still crap lol

if u r really worried about looks then ctr. otherwize style looks decent when painted. get the urathane! not abs plastic. they cost ~same. when u receive the lip, it may have some defects that u will need to fix like rough surface or crooked.

just check ebay. i bought my jdmshit sir lip for about the same price as an OEM. the reason is, its urathane and will not break if i hit something. i've had an abs explode under my wheels on the highway one day when there was some box on the highway. with my old mugen replica, i ran over it and it still looked the same. save money and spend on other stuff unless u have an excess of money like some others do.

Re: (luckii)
well I am concerned about fitment but im more concern on the way it looks once its on.
I also worry about durability since I do live in miamilol
so now either ill get a urathane identical replica of a ctr or a oem ctr .no Sir lip I personally like the ctr only on a 98 spec ek. thanks

Re: (tobe1424)
you could be stupid and go ricer and drill holes in your bumper and ziptie a piece of aluminum on it, 
but really though if i had money i would get the authentic one, it's just one thing that would make me feel better, i would regret the ebay lip.
