Default Clean looking front lip for a 5th gen Accord?

Does anyone have any links or pics to a nice, clean and sublte looking front lip for a 5th gen Accord? I saw TAS Auto has a couple but I'm not sure how they look installed on the car. Did Honda ever offer this as a OEM factory option (or JDM)?

If anyone has any recommendations or pics of one attached to your ride that would help as well! Remember -- nice and simple looking -- No "snow plows" please!

Mugen Front Lip. Look around youll find it in the picture thread. I just recently put one on my car. Mugen > Type-R IMO.

look through the Accord Picture Thread for pictures, thats why it's there. If you see something you like, IM the member and ask them what lip it is and where they got it.

There is not much to choose from for the 5th gen. There's the Mug style, Type R style, and Wings West lips. I have the Mug style lip installed and like the way it looks, but the ABS plastic cracks easily and the fit is not perfect when it comes to the bolt pattern! Right now I'm running with a "Nascar" tape job after clipping a curb.
It all comes down to how much you want to spend. Less than $100.00 for one off of eBay that looks good and will last as long as you don't hit something, or $260.00 for a urethane lip that can take a little punishment.

Azect makes a nice clean front lip. However it's made in Japan and is fawking expensive. I believe Top End motorsports can get it.

I had a mugen lip, but ripped in half. It looked good, but my vote goes for the greddy lip though. The itR looks hot too.

I had the same thing on my 96 and switched to the 94/95
it bugged me at first because my front end was not as low but it grew on me.
Now, I wouldn't even trade for a Genuine Mugen lip. I love not having anything gaudy hanging off my bumper.

If I didn't daily drive my Accord on PA roads I wouldn't think twice about buying an Azect lip

the stock 96-97 lip was hardly anything and the mugen one was too bulky,
plus I didn't like how it flared out at the ends...

im going to ahve to throw my vote in for the greddy lip..here is mine:



if you are a fan of the slammed look, this lip is really low:



*warning* though...this is my second one and well.. i need a new one since i have two cracks again on the lip..one on each side in the middle near the holes...this lip is pretty hard to crack but just the right impact will crack it...

oh and nice to see another white accord rockin itr's ..do you get alot of bullshit about people thinking yours are hx's jd?
