Well I have always wanted a rear lip on my crx and I had an 89 Si lip sitting around in my garage. I placed it up to the back of the 90 bumper and it looked like it would fit with some modification. So I went to work.

It wasn't that hard it just takes patience. I used assorted screws and bolts to hold it in place and a hair dryer to heat it up so it would keep shape. I also used a dremel with a cut off wheel to cut the lip in some spots to get it to bend correctly. Unfortunately my lip was cut up on the sides for some reason so it may look a little weird around the side edges.

First just grind off the little plastic tabs on the top of the lip so it sits flush with the bumper.



Then line up where you are going to make your cut for the exhaust. Make sure you leave enough plastic to fold into the exhaust cut out. This gives it a much cleaner look in my opinion. Cut the lip in that spot.

Then at one corner put a screw through the under side of the lip into the bumper cover, After you line it up and have it where you want it. This will hold that end in place.


This is when I heated the lip up and started to mold it to the bumper. Just rest the tabs where the lip was mounted stock along the bottom of the bumper. I used vise grips to keep it in place after I heated it up.


This also helps when putting the screw through to keep the lip from shifting. I had to cut some of the plastic off on the underside of the lip where it bends around the bumper, because the plastic was to hard to bend here. The hardest part was molding the plastic into the exhaust cut out. I had to grind away the top of the lip and the buttom so I could get a nice even bend. Then just put a screw through the lip into the bumper on the inside of the exhaust cutout. This is the only visible screw but it is very hard to see.









I will post pics of it on my car in a few days once I get some good pics of it.

our cars would look dumb with aftermarket rear lips, you have front lip, rear lip and no sideskirts wouldnt look too good,

but this will look awesome on the car

For bling guys like you

 

awesome write up! looks great!

 

looks like i got new mod to do

 

i bought the honda 91 Sir rear lip for my civic. parts and shipping was like 250cdn.

yours was free

Good job

 

smooth

 

Looks oem.

 

my front lower lip i modified to fit my jdm rear bumper, i have to take pics of the finished project, i used about 10 self tapping screws about 15mm long each... looks great but jdm rear bumper is curved in on sides, and it's too cold outside for heatgun to work, i used the vicegrips too, see how the mounts are different on my 90-91 front lower lip. they don't go in as far as yours so cutting was kept to a minimum, looks great can't wait to get more pics.

 

You baller

 

that looks sweet

 

damn yo you got soo much time on your hands to mess with things i wish i had that much time nice and clean lip

 

newer better pics!


thermal looks smaller now bent in both sides, looks like it was suppose to be there.


see screws (little red dot on each one.) gives u idea of mounting, all screws are hidden.


Bl!ng Bl!ng


these are the only visible gaps, i will reheat with my heat gun when it gets warmer or i can work inside... not bad really


madd jdm yo!

 

very nice!
