Default ABS Dynamics CTR Front Lip (96-98)

Has anyone ordered this? I heard the fitment of their parts was pretty good, but as always I'd like to ask if anyone on here has ordered the CTR Lip for the 96-98 Civic from these guys?



The main thing I'm interested in is the corners where it mounts to the bumper by the wheel well is rounded off just like the OEM piece. Does anyone have pictures of it installed, or any experience with the part? Thanks.

I got a mugen front lip for my teg from ABS, and the fitment sucked. The corners were like an inch away from the end of the bumper on both sides, so i just returned it.

abs dynamics lips fit like **** and have gaps or are too short on the ends

spend the extra $$$ and get real oem or the wings west lip for a perfect fit

If you spend 2-300 you might as well go OEM.

absdynamics.com
jdmshit.com
jhpusa.com
jdmcarboy.com

They all have them, so dig through and find a price. The cheapest I've seen is $120.00 shipped.

If you do get one let me know and take pictures because I am curious.

Hey opiumdaze, do you have any front 3/4 shots of the Wings West lip? That'd be cool if you could post that up.

abs dynamics lips are perfect, if u cant afford OEM or dont wanna dish out the money for it...if there is any problem with the products (i.e. fitment or damage) they have no problem exchanging it out for the correct and or better lip
