Hey str8edgexx, what kinda rear lip is that? an OEM from honda dealer? I love it. Can it fit on a 00 coupe?

My lip is an OEM '96-'98 lip...I got it online from handa-accessories. That lip can fit on your car, even though its not specifically for it. SiClone on here did it to his '99 Si. Take a look:





He said it took a small amount of modification (nothing you can't do with a dremel) to fit it on, but it was relatively simple.

Just for comparison's sake, here's what the the '99-'00 OEM rear lip looks like:






Personally, I like the '96-'98 lip better...its more aggressive looking. The '99-'00 is nice, but its a little more conservative and plain looking. Its all personal preference. Honda has stopped producing both of them, so you can only get whats still out there thats unsold. If you need to, you can just get one in any color and paint it...it shouldn't be that much.

Hope I was a help.

if you don't want to spend that much, just get one of the CTR knock-offs that they sell on ebay. You can pick it up for like $90, and just get it painted...it should only cost at most $150 to paint it, probably less. I went with the OEM just because I wanted an exact paint match...didn't want something that would be really close, but slightly off....plus, its OEM quality, and if I ever sell the car, I can say everything on it is genuine honda equiptment.

Don't know if you're looking for both front and rear lip, but autodynamic.com is selling a front and rear lip for your car for about 170. Might be a different style though...
