It most likely won't match up to your car. The material probably isn't as strong as OEM material

That prices seem pretty good on that site. If anyone can vouch for that site I would get my rear and side skirts from there.

You get what you pay for, save up and get the real thing.

Nah thats a little too expensive for me. $2500+ is a little much for just a body kit. I think as long as the body shop does a good job fitting it and painting it, it should come out good.

Uh, we're talking about OEM lip kits, not body kits. Usually they come painted and the total price is close to $1K, if not, a little over.

handaccessories.com has some, and a few other sites still have the OEM. do a search for lip kits and check all the threads. someone posted a couple other sites.

The people who work at dealerships are lazy dumbasses. Instead of doing a nationwide search for the parts they say, "sorry, no one carries them since it's been discontinued".

here's another site that has them, buy it quick before someone else does.

Why not just go with the WW RS lip?

Im pretty sure the satan hasn't made any CF lips in a long time. Probably shouldent bother him about it.

The OEM kit on the type SH is just skirts and maybe a rear lip. The only front lip that im aware of from the factory is the Type S lips which is about $350 bucks alone. It is a little pricey, but there is nothing better than OEM fitment and quality.

It's not that I don't want to pay as much, it's just that I can't find any real OEM lip kits. The only one I have found is on handa-accesories.com, but those only come in black or the electron blue. I am looking for the pearl white color for a 99 lude, the price doesn't really matter, but buying the one from handa-accesories will be too much of a hassle. If anyone knows where I can get the real thing in pearl white it would be greatly appreciated!!!

I looked on http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com but I couldn't find it....

Good luck on finding a pearl white lip kit. That color is the most sought for.

I believe Matgallis here on HT found the last set in pearl white through a dealership. I think he found two.

Your best bet is to buy it in different colors and re-painting them.
