Not that I've heard of, nope.

OEM rear, mugen, WW RS, and a few other replica rear lips.

That's not the SH lip, there's no such thing except for the JDM type S lip. There is a OEM lip/kit.

The lip kit in your link is the WW RS lip kit, ugly IMHO.

no way man, you're wrong. the WW RS lip kit flares out a bit too much, it sticks out a little longer than the OEM. the front lip has a scratch like thing on it under the turn signal, ugly IMO.

don't make me find pics and compare it.

the SH never came with a kit, unless it's the optional OEM kit. the SH only came with painted side/rear skirts. where the base is unpainted.

OEM Front Lip


WW RS Front Lip


OEM Side Skirt


WW RS Side Skirt


OEM Rear Skirt/Lip


WW RS Rear Skirt/Lip



Now look at them closely, are they still the same to you? The only thing that's similar is the sides, but IMO the OEM sides are cleaner.

So basically, Wings West took the style of the OEM kit and tried to make it look a little wilder. I don't like it.

And if anyone wants to buy an OEM kit, figure it out from the pictures.

There's a place that still have them, but not for cheap, and not color matched. You'll have to repaint them.

OEM and mugen are the best kits ever made for the 5th gen prelude.

For the authentic one, it's very pricey. $2-3K I believe. For replicas, it's cheap but the fitment is ***. I've seen so many bad fitments on the prelude.

The front is a whole bumper. The sides/rear is a lip.

IMO, greedy front w/ mugen sides/rear = teh winnAr.

From http://www.kingmotorsports.com

Mugen front bumper $1,260
Mugen side skirts $860
Mugen rear lip $500
Mugen Spolier $840

You can get a knock off mugen kit between $300-$600 for skirts, front bumper and rear lip. but its made out of fiberglass and fitmit isnt so great.

hah, well my front isnt an actual mugen front, but it is just as good. fiberglass is fiberglass, im going to take it off here in a few weeks and lay some more reinforcement on the lip, there is a small crack, you cant see it, but im scared if i dont fix it soon it will be too late

Fiberglass is NOT just fiberglass. Quality differs.
