I have my Accord rear lip sitting in my closet right now waiting to go on. You have to modify the rear lip by shortening the center section and cutting off the ends of the side sections so it all sits flush.

One painted white

Don't get em' from a junkyard because they are cheap at the dealership. Nice, clean, and new. I got a brand NEW Accord front lip for 38$. It fits well after modifying it.

Its the 94' Accord pieces that you want by the way.

But if you really want some used ones... I have a set for the front and rear that I'll sell for cheap but they need to be sanded and painted. Right now they are white.

I am not digging the 94-95 Accord rear lip. Anyone do the 96-97 Accord rear lip??

I actually ended up buying a 96 Accord because I liked the front bumper/lip and the rear lip better than the 95.

Man, I miss my Accord. It was slow, but man, that thing was inexpensive to maintain/own.

I've been thinking about doing the same thing, leaving the center piece off. Do you have any close-up shots of your rear bumper? I've also been thinking, I'm about to get my car painted and I was curious as to whether it'd look nice to mold the lip pieces onto the bumper. Just a thought...

no, i don't have any close ups.

i got my rear accord lip for free. i went to a salvage yard and a i seen a junk accord front bumper and rear bumper. I asked the owner about them and he said that i can take what i want off the bumper since he's gonna junk it anyways.

I just bought a new 5th gen accord (94-95) front lip from speedyautoparts.com, $55 shipped in 4 days, gettin' it tomorrow.....I'll get pics posted asap, probably be early next week. I'd been lookin' to buy a lip for awhile, and didnt want to spend $300 (although satan's are sick as hell), found out this trick, puttin' it to the test. Gonna try the 5-1/2 gen. accord (96-98) rear lip next (have a buddy with one), think it may look a little smoother than the 94-95 (I'll update on that too) SOMEONE POST IF THEY'VE DONE THIS ALREADY!!

Accord owner here, just to clarify a few minor things.

Accord 5th gen 94-97. two different style bumpers, front as well as rear.

94-95 rear lip is indicated in the pics above

96-97 (not 98) is about the same except it is two pieces that run straight across. does not have the ________--------------------------_________ shape to it.

Personally I like the 94/95 lip which will be going on to my 96ex this spring.

Interested in buying the 3 piece 94/95 rear lip this website is heaven for OEM Accord owners:

yonkinator - looks good man. I would have done the same exact thing. I have no idea why people put the middle piece on, it ruins the whole thing. With the way you have it it almost looks like my rear lips.

To me the line/splt between the back of the wheel-well and the lip itself seems too abrupt. I've seen someone use the mudflaps from the same Accords and it seems to "look" better. It smooths it out a bit. Anyone else???
