Paint it, pick it up and put it on the bottom part, screw in the sides, tape the center, bump for a fellow washingtonian.

Was going to say, its not that hard, drill some holes or just screw in, 2 in the center, one one each side, kake sure to get self tapping.

I think they sent you a lip for a different chassis or year.

Yeah it kinda looks like it should be for the 98-01 integra.

.. shoulda went with the JDM **** one. Even though it comes bent up, you can get it to form it straight by letting it sit in the sun. Plus fitment is superb.

EDIT: whoa, nevermind... went back and look at the lip again and that looks exactly like the moooogen style lips for the 96-98 civic front bumpers.

umm, i would say put the 2 screws on each end of the lip to support the sides, and then for the middle you'll probably end up either having to put 2 screws down through the piece that sits in the grill portion of the bumper, or what i did for a buddy of mine was put 2 or 3 black pop-rivets in there so it looks a little cleaner.

do you have any pix of what you did for your buddy's lip? and for teh screws on teh side since it didnt come drilled on teh side i'd have to go do that? along with drilling a small hole on the wheel well side on teh bottom part of the bumper?

alright first ya gotta stop spelling THE as TEH... not cool.

but heres a picture that should help you out. bored at work, so here ya go.


** for the middle three, thats where i would use black pop-rivets and the 2 sides, you can just use black self-tapping screws.

Thurman-thanks a lot for all your help man.....as for the "teh" MY bad on that i was typing real quick and didnt bother to correct my spelling.....but yea i have a few more questions....so you say to take two screws in the side to hold it up better but when i hold up the lip to the bottom where it would be screwed it looks like it only would fit for one screw, check this....

to get it straight, you'll basically just kind of have to either eye ball it or take a measuring tape all along the middle edge in the middle of the bumper, and make sure its even all around to the sides.

screw in the middle three first so that it's centered, then that way you'll be able to move the sides of the lip up and down as desired for the correct lining up.

seeing as how it looks like its abs plastic, you'll probably have to force it a little and pull to get the back around the side of the bumper. anymore questions, just ask

the red lip in the picture you have and the actual lip you have are different...that lip you have is like a generic type r lip that they make for every model honda...my opinion, altho youre not really asking for it is get the jdmshit lip...everyone is right tho, just screw that thing in...either way youre car will look cool im sure:.
