Icon2 Need help... What lip do you prefer on you 96 Accord...

I've made up my mind to get a lip for my 96 Accord EX... I already have the 94-95 lip installed.. But as of today I have someone selling a Type R lip and I have another one selling Mugen Lip.. There's other choices.. I will post pictures from the choices I have now or should I order... Well thanks

Ps.. If you can post pictures and information on the lip you choose...

lol I highly doubt they are either Mugen or Type-R considering the Mugen lips are rare and a small fortune and they're is no such thing as a USDM "Type-R" Accord.

ALTHOUGH! There are "Mugen Style" and "Type-R Style" knockoff lips, one of which I am running. Here's my 94 EX with the "Mugen Style" knockoff lip.

You can buy what is called the VIS Techno R- its a replica of the first picture below.
94-95


96-97


Just buy or find a 94/95 OEM lip, it works too!
As stated earlier, its a knockoff lip. I couldn't see paying ridiculous amounts of money for a lip that would most likely (as perfectly relevant on my drivers side) break over the winter.

I plan on buying an entire 94-95 bumper that isn't full of holes with an intact OEM lip. My bumper and stock lip are not pretty, due to the EVER so great original owners. I didn't actually break my lip from snow, it was from a really gnarly train track on the back route to my house.

Just me but "NZXT" - if you plan on keeping ac.....I'd do something about that big opening......a small rock into that thing and I bet the cond will get a leak.

Again, no hate, no disrespect - just something to think about, that is all. Everyone will have to admit that there is a clear shot to the ac cond and ps cooler.
