I got a rear lip from a 94 accord today at the junk yard, hoping to replace my non existing one on my prelude, and its a lot longer going towards the wheel then I thought.

Do I just need to do some cutting, or am I mistaken on it fitting.

 

Im pretty sure it needs cutting to fit right

 

yeah, it DEF needs cutting...I have it on mine.

 

any chance you wanna snap some pictures?

Im going to tackle this tonight..

If you could just post some, or, snap some some of how it was mounted n'such that'd be awesome.

 

i had to make my own holes for most of it...then i used like 2 of the stock holes that actually lined up. I might have some pix on here...

 

Thats about as good of pictures I have...Basically just put the 2 outside peices on then cut the middle to fit in between the 2 sides. then cut the side peices where they stick into the fender well.

 

what did you cut them with? just saw?

 

i actually used a dremel

 

dremel ftw

I also used it to cut the accord lip.
Next project is to make it fit with the rear mudflaps.

 

dremel x3

 

cutting required on ends

also i lined it up.. and drilled through the existing bolt holes in the accord piece..

Someone on here has the rear lip that looks like it's molded to the mudflaps it's so close. It looks clean...

Anyone else seen what I'm talking about?

 

yeah its in the prelude pictures thread somewhere. im to lazy to look for it. i will be trying this soon to mine as well.

 

I've seen it done with the stock accord rear mudflaps and it looks a lot cleaner, I just hate mud flaps so I didn't go that route.

Here's a picture of what I'm talking about, I got this picture off preludeonline.

Money! That's it!

 

Your rear lips look glossy. Are they painted?

Also can you elaborate on which ends need to be cut. THanks

 

2 end pieces are painted... middle isn;'t


only thing that needs to be cut are the areas by the wheel well.... bout 2" or less from each side

 

It's really not that hard

take off your old lip
take some blocks and prop up the new lip under the bumper
center the new lip and cut off excess on edges
take a marker and mark where holes need to be drilled
drill holes and mount

you can also use a hairdryer or heat gun to help form the lip when mounting.

i personally went to home depot and got some black outdoor plastic paint for a bit more of a glossy look

 

What year accord lip is it?

 

my car didnt come with rear mud flaps..

willthe front ones bolt up?
