I would think that someone could make a fair amount of $ if they just produced a quality CF splitter for the USDM front end. I know I would like one. I don't see the point of a CF replica of the stock lip, though, since the stock one can't be that heavy and a CF one would be pretty expensive by nature.

I'm curious to what it would look like.

The stock lip looks the best IMO.

My friend showed me this... http://www.asylumms.com/image/acura/acura.htm

I tried to call them but no answer. I doubt the one in the pic is a cf one "painted for detail puposes" but it says they make it. I'll try to get ahold of them and have em send a real pic.

If you could get a real pic that would be great, that pic is just of a white Teg there is nothing CF about it.......

$300! Even if it is true CF, it's just an OEM replica. You won't get any aerodynamic benefit over the stock lip (if you already own an R), and the weight savings has to be very small. I'd pay another $100 and just get the hood. At least you know the OEM hood is heavy, not like the plastic OEM lip.

ITR206, where is he in PA?
How much are you looking at, and how many candidates would you need? If he needs a car for 94-97 test-fitting, Id be happy to help out.
