Default Del Sol Front Lip

Before anyone tells me to go search, I should make mention that I've been browsing past topics for a while to no avail. I'm trying to find the 92-95 civic two door front lip that mounts to the del sol. I've checked alot of oem part sites as well as a lot of posted links(most of which are no longer in operation). Also, since I'm a Noob and only allotted 5 posts a day, I wanted to ask about a mugen intake filter that came with my brothers accord intake on x3racing.com. I can't find these for sale anywhere. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Are you referring to the Type R lip on the jdmcarboy webside? Is this the same lip? Also how "unperfect" does it fit. Am I looking at a lot of modding? I also don't want some mangled-*** looking lip on my car. Thanks

I got my 92-95 ex/si civic lip to fit almost perfect! you just need to use a bunch of bols and misc. hardware.

that looks damn good. I think if I get one I wanna leave it black to match the side skirting. How much work was it to make it fit that good? From what I've read you just fit it then drill up through the holes on the lip? Thanks in advance.

thanks, Yea i drilled up thru those holes, i also drilled up thru the lip and the bumper cover where ever it was needed to pull the lip up a bit. I would recommend painting the sides and the lip, looks way better.

Just like washers and rubber washers, just to fill the void in between the lip and bumper cover where needed. Its really a simple process, and HT member could do in an afternoon.


Also if you look real close in the middle of the lip you can see it sagging off the bumper. Thats not a fitment issue, that was my fault. The day of installation while driving into the garage i drove over the lip. Good thing it wasnt C/F.
