If you're talking about the 5th gen civic lip, then I am pretty sure the EX/VX lip is the same as the SiR lip. I have the Civic SiR lip on my del Sol. It looks just like the EX/VX lip, unless there's something i'm not noticing about it.

Ok, it depends which gen you're talking about...

The lip for the 5th gen civics si,ex,vx or whatever is all the same. Even for the jdm sir's.

For 6th gen civic's the usdm si lip is the same as the canadian sir lip, because it's pretty much the same car.

And no 96-98 civic came with a front lip in noth america.

For 6th Gen USDM 96-98 there was an optional OEM lip. NOFX has one on her car. (Rare), Took her a long time to find it. (hope she doesnt mind me posting a picture)





This is an OEM 96-98 Sir Lip on my car.






For the 5th Gen civics im unsure of, I never looked into anything appearance wise with them.
