JDM 98+ Type R rear lip? And UK/Euro bumper question.

Was an OEM rear lip or sideskirts made for the DC2 Integra in Japan. I have the JDM coversion on my car and personally dont like the look of the USDM rear skirts with the JDM front lip. It makes the front look too small- because the USDM ITR lip is bigger.

I would also like to know if anyone here has bought a Euro R rear bumper with the foglight in it, to replace there stock bumper? Mine has a gnarly scratch in it and I figured I would upgrade

Or maybe you guys just bought the light and cut it in and wired yourself???

Thank you in advance!

If u somehow can get to see JDM Best Motoring July 2001, they intro DC5R prototype from Honda and during interview with head engineer, the background CW JDM DC2R have OEM sideskirt and rear lip when compare to new DC5R. It seems last yr of 01R in Japan, Honda threw in the oem aero as the package in order to get rid of dead stock to end an era.

Thanks for the info-

Was the OEM kit the same as the USDM ones? Or were they more befitting of the smaller JDM front? Also do you know which B.M. video it was?

Great info, Thanks

They have the same side skirts and rear piece that we have here in the states. It doesn't look too bad, but I don't think it's worth the cash either though.

good luck finding them... and even if you do, prepare to be pay a lot for them. Len from Baranco Acura found a few sets but they sold out quickly.
