if you want to get the front and rear lip you need the JDM bumpers. there are newer headlights that are projectors or the older ones which are just gunmetal.

Give these guys a ring:

Fizz Autosports
219-15B Northern Blvd
Bayside, New York 11361
tel 718.631.4001
http://fizzautosports.com

If you were on the west coast, I'd recommend somebody else. Since you're in their back yard, however, I think they're good people for you to be dealing with.
They put together kits that are a little cheaper than you think they would be. They sell full UKDM/JDM kits that include the bumpers, bumper support, front and rear spoiler, and hatch wing. They can get the kids painted in OEM colours, but only the colours that the EP3 CTR comes in (black, white, silver, red).

They can also get the Buddy Club and spoilers that work on the USDM nose if that's what you're after.

check out showstoppers.com they sell a ton of ep3 specific stuff, including a high-quality usdm-fitting type-r replica kit. no need for the jdm bumpers for fitment. they also have the cf version i think.

showstoppers makes a ctr lip kit for the USDM body. 02silversihb or something like that has it. looks good IMO.

i just thought and still think the "JDM" bumpers and lip for like 800 a piece was ridiculous.

What's the correct URL for their site? The logical tries I've made don't go to their site.

Thanks.

Here's the Show Stoppers picture of the full conversion. I think it looks better than the USDM add-ons.



They offer two different USDM front lips, only $175 each:

CW looks very dirty or even yellow when placed against just about all other automotive whites.

What do we think of these?

They're under $300, and you wouldn't have to do any rewiring since they use the OEM single-bulb main beam.

Wondering if there's any real beam improvement, or if it's just for looks.

Wow, that bumper really looks clean w/o the turn signals on it.
Does anyone make a flush signal kit so that I don't have these boat trailer lights hanging off the front of my car?
