definately sell that. you'll probably make a profit off a ricer.....

that thing is hideous....

98 front, ITR lip, OEM optional sides, OEM optional rear valances....thats the kit. Very pricey and hard to find though.

Sounds good.. i bought the kit before i could find any pictures of what it looked like.. too much rice for me.. i like the stock bumpers but they make the car seem a little too high... i'll most likely take the effort to find thoes pieces

Do WW still make this kit? Its a replica of the Mugen Si-VTEC kit which i had on my last integra except mugen didnt make the rear bumper lip thing (which looks ugly IMO) but the skirts front lip and rear wing are nice.

As for the original question...that kit is absolutely hideous...sont destroy your car by putting that thing on, sell it on ebay
