You just narrowed things down by alot. Not many companies make Carbon Kevlar Lips because the demand isn't great, mainly because the prices are a tad rediculous. Alot of people are going with the BYS Bumper which has a bottom Carbon Kevlar piece attached. Look through this thread, but its not DC2 specific:

They are roughly 900 new, but sorry to disapoint you... I don't think I have seen one for the USDM from, just JDM. I could be wrong.

These would be the guys to ask: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/2013395

I don't even know. Only place I knew of was Composites Fab which went out of buissness and scammed a bunch of people on the way out. Or so was the claim.

In my opinion... Without a carbon fiber hood to match the lip on PY, it looks like ***. There's a reason I have a paint matched lip now.

Don't rely on Doostur for info, he just recently found out what BYS was even though he is stationed in Japan.

I say a CF OEM style lip is the best of both worlds. Your car looks great, but it seems your front hangs a little lower than your sides and rears, but I'm sure you have noticed this already.

w00t! That's my car, hahaha.
It looks nothing like that now. It looks just like a JDM '98-Spec ITR (w/out the wing/spoiler).
