Default lip kit suggestion?

considering that i think the front of my car looks a bit too round and not all that sporty, i wanted to buy the front chin spoiler for my 98 accord coupe from handa-accessories.com but it seems as tho the one with my color is out of stock (emerald pearl). any suggestion for any other good lip kit? i want a 'clean' look but not too sporty where my car turns into a rocketship.

I love my brothers lip kit... I dont know for sure, but I wanna say its a factory option... Is this the one u were talking about? If it was, your car would look basically like this, I think his is even emeral pearl aswell IIRC...

As much as it sucks, you might want to buy one in a different color and have it repainted, they are starting to become rare from what I've seen on the boards.

I love the OEM lip kit for the coupes, nice and clean.

Hood is carbon fiber with the corners above the headlights painted the original color, and 2 strips on each side going from the gril back... Looks great in person... I love his car, just cuz its so clean and subtle... Even with the CF hood its very subtle... He bought the wheels from the original owner (after the sale of the car), they are Volk GT-Ns, they were gunmetal, but in bad shape... So he had them repaired, and against my adivce, had them painted black with the a polished lip... It came out alright I guess... I just liked them so much better before... Only thing is he has some TYC tails on it... But even with those it looks damn good... And I gotta say, I dont know if this is an Accord thing or what... But Ive NEVER heard any other Honda sound like his... When he gets on it, it literally growls like its a V8 or something...

:werd: re-paint it if you have to. my sister has that kit and between her car and mine, it's my favorite mod.

Exempt, you have to convince your bro to take the TYC tails off! the stock ones are sooooooo much better. they give the coupe an NSX touch.
