They are different, you are right about the Type-R flaring out more, it is shaped a little differently too I believe.

I think they look the same, but some guy told me that they were different. The only difference I see is the price. I looked at pics and in some pics it does seem to flare out more but I figure it is just the angles.

being a previous owned of an Si...and looking again for another 5 minutes...there is no difference...at least not one noticeable enough to justify spending another few hundred bucks for the CTR one...

Yep, they are different. The differences might be miniscule but they are different none-the-less.

Yup, that is definitely different. I have a lip on order right now so I've been studying it in and out. Definitely different.

the Si and CTR front lips are EXACTLY the same. Anybody who would pay more for a JDM CTR lip....has money to burn. Take two of them off the car side by side and you would not be able to the difference. My two cents.

yeah...they are different...i wish i had pics to back it up but i had a pic of the front of an SI and the front of a CTR...the CTR lip is flared out a little bit more...not enough to pay an extra $100 for...i went with the si lip...almost the same thing anyways...
