Installed: Mugen CF lip on my EK

Not too sure about the look still - the car's been in the garage during the snow so finally decided to take it out and install the lip today. The fitment isn't the greatest thus my dilemma. The car originally had the same lip in fiberglass painted VSM. Got this CF lip sorta free so.....

Comments welcome

"Style" parts are for people with a lack of style

Re: Installed: Mugen CF lip on my EK (prada_G)

Not sure of the brand (buddy who gave it to me got it from OptionJDM.com)

Sorry not to mention it was Mugen "style"

The fitment is bad where the lip overlaps/goes close to the grill. There's about a 1/4 inch gap....sorry, I should've taken pics of the fitment....LOL Could be because its cold here and I can't bend the lip or my bumper....

Guess i'll try the lip out....if I get tired of it I always have my silver one still...

Actually the car is a 1999 CX - the previous owner use to have an LS-Turbo under the hood and cut up the OEM bumper for the FMIC. He got an aftermarket bumper and that's probably the only thing I didn't like about the car when I bought it last year. The fitment on the bumper really sux.
