Default How's the fitment on the 94-95 accord lip?

I can't get an aftermarket lip for my 4th gen so I heard you can install the 94-95 accord front and rear with slightly modifications, anyone has pics of it installed or know what needs to be modified to make it fit right? What about the sides, are they worth getting?

Why can't you get an aftermarket lip?

There are numerous threads on using the Accord lips, but in the end it a simple matter of holding the parts up to your car and trimming off excess material and drilling holes in the right places.

just use screws. Trust me it works. DO NOT USE A POWER DRILL!!! Its hard to screw them in with a screw driver but it works 2134345252081345 times better

for the most part it fit just right, you have to drill holes on the accord lip to match the one's on the prelude's bumper, but for the most part it looks good, i only have about 1/4 inch of the lip sticking out on the right but is barely noticable

The damn lip didn't even get close to fitting right, I got it today, it's a Muge style, it's polyurethane and does not seem like it's gonna fit, does not curve to blend with the bumper, anybody has any suggestions?

Before i put the Accord Type R lip on i had CD5 Accord lip on my lude. I didnt need to do any modification to mine beyond heat gunning and bending the fat bit in the middle down which goes over the bumper on the accord so it would fit under the prelude one, and drilling new holes in it. To get it to fit flush you MUST start by securing it at the outside first, if you start in the middle it just wont line up properly.

Photo of it on the car.
