is the oem lip kit for the 5th gen the same as the stock SH lip kit or is it bigger? because i see pics of them and they look bigger

 

The oem kit was an option on the base and he SH. The SH had painted side skirts however.

 

so if you bought ur 5th gen used then u couldnt really tell if the original owner got the option or not?

 

you can tell.it looks little more aggressive.If you want really aggressive get the Wings West RS lip kit.

Are you kidding me guy? You have been here for one month. Let me tell you again, the first picture is an OEM optional lip kit. The second picture is a dropped stock sh prelude.

I know H&Aacessories.com have the Electron blue look to spend 900 shipped.you can get a knock off for 600 on ebay but u need to paint it.

 

^ Also the ebay replica kits are fiberglass while the original lip kit is made out of ABS plastic (more durable).

 

yeah i checked out h&a-acessories and they want 342 for both sides, i only want the right side, plus they say they only have blue when im silver....... never will i put fiberglass on anythin thats prone to shock so aftermarket is outta the pic, anyone know if wings west just sells sides ?

 

^yes, it's pretty nice too.get the entire kit

 

hey guys i have a 2001 honda prelude non-sh and i needed to know if i could paint the side skirts that are already on the car or do i have to buy the oem side skirts. Are they the same or are they totally different? i already bought the front and back

actually the first pic is the OEM kit and the second pic are SH painted sides and the Base sides look exactly like the SH sides, but they're just unpainted. Gotta be sure to have your info correct before posting

yes you can painted your base sides. All you need to do is wet sand them with 600 grit sand paper, buy some plastic adhesive such as Bulldog, and then paint them. Before actually painting them, be sure to wipe them down with wax and greese remover so that it doesn't cause fish eyes in the paint from the oils from your fingers
