Buy an ebay knockoff if you don't want to buy an OEM piece.

Search the For Sale / Want to Buy thread at the top of Page 1 to see if someone is selling any. You can make a "want to buy" post in there and hope for the best.

Or else you might want to browse craigslist or car-part.com for a used OEM one. That should save you a few bucks.

Ahaha! I used to have Volvo side skirts on a lowrider Toyota truck. Mind you, this was back in the late 90's.

Tellin' ya, just Google lips for 2001 - 2005 Civics. There are many available. Don't settle for something that may or may not fit right.

IIRC, the 99-00 lips need to be stretched in order to fit right.

EDIT: google 2004-2005 civic lip.

2001-2003 has a completely different bumper.

Depends on the lip. Some lips only fit 01-03 while others will fit on 01-05.

The "Front Aero Kit" for example, will fit 01-05 coupes while the "Front Under Spoiler" is 01-03 only. (according to H and A)

I've also seen the 04-05 rear lip on an 01-03. It wasn't an "exact" fit, but it was on there. (had small gaps)

The "Rear Aero Kit" will fit 01-05 coupes, as well.
