I'm sorry but all those OEM wannabe lips look like trash. If you want to be a stunner and get a CF lip, get one that isn't a failed attempt of a 99-00 OEM Honda Civic lip on a 96-98 Civic. Call me crazy but I don't see that point of having a CF lip that serves NO function but to look cool. I could see one of those Spoon wannabe CF lips making downforce but that one won't do ****. I think the original poster wants something that looks like this:

most 96-98 owners put on the spoon replica lips, look better imo.

wow you're right i've never seen that lip before, looks kind of extreme though. but damn that hatch is HOT!

i RARELY post here but figured i would help you out this is my car: (kind of hard to see because my car is black )



it's a replica made by ABS dynamics of So. Cali. i picked it up from them for only $60. the fitment is pretty good.

good luck!

site: http://www.absdynamics.com
here is where you'll find it:
http://www.absdynamics.com/pro...HONDA

under "Front Lips" PART NUMBER on that site is: flip-c9698ty-jdm

it's $120.95 though. i bought it when they had a GB

good luck! and ppl always told me to do a 99-00 conversion. why get rid of a PERFECTLY fine front end?

thanks for the reply guys.. looks like wings west makes the closest replica to the real CTR. all lips posted (with the exception of the rear ctr) looks too short and fatter than the actual lip.

looks the same, its the angle of the shot.

WW makes a quality part though, but I think you could find it for less (especially if you lower a lot, this piece could take a beating).

Either way if you get WW, order from http://www.NewWayAutoSports.com best prices I could find on WW products shipped.
