Default Replaced my front lip

After losing control of the car and running it into a curb 2 months ago, I finally go the damaged fixed. The front lip was slight scratched, but not that bad. Either way, I highly recommend going with the OEM part if you need to replace it. I paid exactly $300 (after tax) for the new part, and it comes painted from the factory. My mechanic friend told me I should have just fixed the old one since the scratches aren't that bad. I just wanted a new one though. I'm hoping to get some digital pictures of the old one after my wedding in a few weeks. It shouldn't be too hard to fix the damage and repaint it. I'd only want $100 for it.

i think that since the dc2 is out of production, it'd be a good idea to buy an "extra" front lip for us itr owners!

now you can park with reckless abandon and know that if you bang your lip, you have that extra one to replace it with!

anyway, looking forward to your pics!

Mine is yellow. However, I did keep the box the new lip came in so I can ship it.

Btw, I don't forsee the lips getting hard to find just because the DC2 is no longer made. You can still get parts for Hondas that are a lot older.

Jeez my lip is scraped to hell and back, and that's with only a 1" drop. I was going to get an extra one but the dealer told my roommate (he too has an ITR) it would be over $400. Time for me to call your dealership!

they don't have them in any of the R colors, but for that price you can afford to have them painted.
I got my front in blue, and the rest of the parts are in frost white.

They must be selling the Comptech kit then. It was $300 list and came unpainted. The OEM stuff comes painted. I didn't want to mess with painting and having to worry about the paint matching.
