Looks like a good lip.

 

a oem type r front lip with free shipping for 99. looks likes its too good to be true.

 

It's probably a good fit...

Although, you would have to drill out the mounting locations on the lip and use your own hardware, which shouldn't be too hard.

 

It looks pretty good, but you have to take into consideration how it's gonna fit.

It may look good unmounted, but it may fit like **** when bolted up.

I'd buy it if I could get some reputable info on it.

 

Guess we'll see, it'll be here monday, Ill take a buncha pics and post em for everyone, possibly a how to for the newbs

I doubt its OEM

 

its "98-01 Acura Integra OEM Type R Style Front Lip". Notice the word "Style". But lets wait for the verdict on fitment.

 

I can tell you for a fact that it's not the OEM.

They made it from a mold off the OEM lip.


ABS plastic (first post) vs OEM which is polyurethane.
I have another kind of lip...I wish I can show you guys a picture.
It's from the JDM R (or SiRg) frontend but designed to fit 98+ frontends.

 

See my thread, I just installed one from Phasenine. Same lip though.

Well my lip came in today. The problem....Cracked!! Not completely buy a hairline crack from shipping. But after some epoxy, sanding and painting she's on and I must say, this lip is awesome!!!! Perfect fitament!!!! I would highly recommend this lip to anyone on a budget looking for a Type R replica. Super good seller, super fast shipping, and a good overall value!!!

**** it man, I have an unpainted black lip on my teal dc2 also. I think it looks hot either way. So who cares what other people would say.....Thanks for biting the bullet and ordering one though. Fitment looks excellent, im going to have to buy one for me now. If only they made OEM optional sides in abs also that had fitment that good...........|)|200L

 

looks real clean black too bad they dont make ITR style lips for the 94-97 tegs

 

im just curious, what's been people's experience with abs plastic? every thread on this site says that abs is crap cuz oem is polyurethane.. any feedback? for 100 bucks, that fitment looks excellent.

 

Well from my two days of experience I can tell you that the ABS is pretty durable. I mean as with most lips, you need to flex the thing when installing it, and this one was no exception. It has a lot of "give" to it and seems to be pretty solid. Ill report back in a few weeks with an update.
