Well, I ordered my 97 ITR replica lip from jdmshit about a month ago.

My first reaction when I picked it up from ups was . WTF did I get myself into. The lip was folded up and wrapped. I quickly went home and unwrapped it. I read the instructions and was bummed because there wasn't any NorCal sun.

Bummed out I PM Newman. He said blowdry it or stick it in front of the heater. I was cold and lazy so I blasted the heater and put the lip right in front of it. About 4 hours later, the lip looked much better but still not perfect. I wasn't worried that much anyways since it will take shape once the ends were screwed in.

I removed the bumper off of the car and proceeded to separate the lower part of the bumper. It isn't necessary but it did make it a lot easier for me. At first I thought the lip was shorter than the bumper. I kept holding it up to it and it looked like one side wouldn't reach.

I went ahead and screwed one side in on the end of the bumper. I used a little bit of masking tape to hold up the middlepart of the lip.and I went ahead and screwed the other side in. It fit perfect.

Now onto mounting the actual tabs that hold it in place. I thought that the tabs were supposed to be straight like this: " || "

but they are really supposed to be like "//" and "\\". You'll see what I mean when you purchase it.

I test fitted the tabs and lremoved them again<FONT COLOR="gray">(hint: DO NOT REMOVE THE SCREWS YOU USED IN THE ENDS. JUST THE TABS ON THE BOTTOM).</FONT>
I had some heavy duty thin 3M double sided tape that I wanted to install also.
I put the tape on and reinstalled the lip.

I LOVE IT! The fit is perfect and the quality of the lip is excellent. It completes the front end of the 94-97 Integra's soo much

quality= 10/10

fit= 10/10

price= <FONT COLOR="gold">Comptech quality with a Ebay price</FONT>

and to those that bitch about the way they arrive, thats how the Comptech ones come also. Cool thing about this is that it comes with mounting tabs for the bottom.... you need to purchase about 5 10mm bolts with matching U-nuts<FONT COLOR="gray">(like the kind that hold the rear mudflaps in place)</FONT> to complete the installation.

I took pics last night but it was too dark to post. I will post pictures tonight

I bought a urethane 94-97 type r lip as well. Mine wasn't same company, but I've had no problems. People said the same thing to me--"Comptech or it doesn't fit right"

Here's how mine came to me:

LOL, you'll see I forgot to mention there's a custom mold job that goes with it. Hard to explain, but like I said, you'll see

 

Waiting for some pics. The pics on JDMshit's site aren't great...

I'm very interested in this lip. I need a new fender first, but this is high on my priority list.

Whoa thats crazy they ship them like that, i bet that has scared a few people.

Lip looks really good. Like how it just completes the look of the bumper
