Default Rear valances worth it 100 bucks?

to start off i a while back i did a 98+ conversion and my rear bumper came with the holes for . i bought the bumpers the same color as my car so i wont have to paintthem.. it kinda bugs me that i have two small holes in the back....
my friend is selling his rear oem valences for 100 bucks and he'll paint them for me for free is i buy them since he painted my sideskirts and my front lip...what do you guys yay or nay....i kinda like the integra with just the front lip and stock sides skirts painted......

I say get them b/c they are getting rare nowadays. Get them while the price is good before you end up having to spend two to three times that to get a set later on.

They make me really paranoid about getting rear-ended b/c I know that they'll be expensive to replace should I choose to do so.

if you don't want anyone to steal them, buy a rivet gun and rivet those suckers!!! That's what i did to my si-vtec lip.

EDIT: forgot to say....get those thangs!!! They make the rear look a lot lower. If i had a 98+ integ, i'd definitely get them. The rear on my 94 is really high...but i don't wanna mix parts..

100 is dirt cheap, get them while you still can (especially since they're getting painted fo free!!!)

QUOTE] lol since when did the si lip have v-tech ... haha just playen I would buy them thats a great price.. at first I thought I didnt like them but once i got them on they really increased the body lines of the car, they look really sleek and finish up the exterior detailing.. you cant go wrong for 100 bucks.. also if you dont want them why not buy them and resell for 200 .. painted any color

He was referring to the JDM GSR, the Si-Vtec and the lip that came on that vehicle. I believe.

Not true. I have the OEM rear valences without the sideskirts and they look fine to me.

they honestly are not worth the high prices even though i do think they look awesome. Only reason you can sell them for a high price is because people were desperate enough to pay for them once they got discontinued.
When they were BRAND NEW, you could get the full kit for $300-350 already painted.
