I like the mugen style front lip from http://www.absdynamics.com. Pretty cheap too, you can also find them on ebay for around $60-70 + shipping.

Heres a 96-97 Accord Type R Abs lip modified to fit my 92 accord. I think it looks a little more agressive than the 94-95 ex lips but not too much

in my opinion the mugen lip is the best looking (way better than the stupid type r ****)...not to mention it's actually functional, providing both downforce and air to critical parts of the car to add a cooling effect...

Haha cause it has 2 vents? I bet a lot of people with EKs would say the Type R lips are pretty fuctional...So you give no credit to downforce for the type r lip either? It seems like it would help push away oncoming air to me. But eh whatever floats your boat.

i bet, but i really doubt my accord's gonna be ready for those extreme competitions anytime soon, so for street driving when i actually dont need all that extra mumbo jumbo, i'll just stick with the type r. i guess mugen IS functional, doesn't change the fact that the type r lip looks better in my opinion, and doesn't look like im headin to daytona.

relax with the hatin man

That lip is the ugliest thing I've seen next to unpainted bumpers. Just MHO.
BTW: that lip (and the downforce you mentioned) will slow your 1/4 mile down.
