Default Accord front lips compatible with 4th gen prelude

Which accord front lips are compatible with the 4th gen? I already know some members here have the accord coupe OEM front lip on their 4th gens. I really like the Mugen Accord front lip both for appearance and being ABS and would like to know if it is compatible with the BB4. Please post pics if there are any. I would appreciate any help.

95ish body style is this one...just regular accord coupe/sedan lip...all from that body style should be "compatible" w/ minor adjustments/fitment. If you can change your own oil, you should be able to handle this:

Before

After

Sorry but I need to make sure of this before I make my order... Because you said "all" should be compatible, this means that the mugen style lip for the 94-95 accord should fit? Good looking car there btw.

I just need some assurance/confirmation. I've made too many mistakes before and don't want to make another when modding this car.

Where did you buy your lip Statelude?

bought from speedyautoparts.com or something like that.....like i said before, it is not a "direct fit". I would have:
drill
variety of bits
dremel (to cut off top part, dont work on 'lude)
machine screws
heat gun (to help to conform it to the rounder 'lude front end)

I dont know if a typeR lip will work, but theorhetically it should if it fits on the same accord front bumper, I think "darklude" had something like that on his, euroR maybe.

Also, search "accord lip" in the 'lude forum, one of the threads had a link to another site where a guy went through it step by step w/ pics and everything (again-reg accord lip) but thats my .02, gotta go put my new accord rears on now...l8rs

Thank you Statelude. Please keep us updated on your rear lip. : ) The "regular" lip is growing on me now. Unfortunately I searched and cannot find the thread for the link w/ steps. : \ Please help.

btw looks like speedyautoparts doesnt sell those lips anymore. Anyone know any where else I can get one? thanx

two things....do you know how to use the net? j/k the two links below are for an install writeup on superhonda.com, and there are a few more on here, check the "archived" threads under "accord lip", in the "prelude" forum, the second is the speedyautoparts.com link with the lip I bought "oem" not R or EuroR:

try this link:
http://www.superhonda.com/foru...e+lip

and try
http://www.speedyautoparts.com...e=ink
*bout halfway down the page.....

Just givin ya a hard time above, good luck and if you need anything else hit me up.

THAT is the accord lip (the larger one, the "after" picture)...dont think the 98-02 lips will fit...I say that...I have never heard or seen of such. The body styles of the '95ish accords and the 4th gen 'ludes are so similar that it is an easy retrofit.

K</TD></TR></TABLE> every prelude in europe has this lip stock
i´ve never seen another lip on a prelude in germany
maybe the european lip is another then usdm lip



sorry for the small picture but this is my old prelude s and you can see that its the same lip like the larger lip you´ve installed

edit: i forgot that it was painted so its hard to see the lip
