Anyone else rocking this lip? Just purchased it for my SSM 02 Ep3. Debating if I should paint it or just keep it black.

Got this lip because it was cheap and polyurethane.

Google pics aren't cutting it out for me so please show and tell! Was the fitment good?




And a noob question to ask. Never did any exterior mods except for badges and coils... How would I install this lip to make it "perfectly" secure. My brother installed a Polyurethane lip on his s2k a couple of months ago "8" and he just recently ran over it on the highway and I def do not want that to happen.

:pop2: In for more info! Maybe I can afford a lip one day! Curious about the black "finish" out of the box as well.

Poly looks like dirt IMO
especially cheap poly
I recommend painting it.
If you don't want it paintmatched, than I still recommend painting it to whatever color your want.
If you want that oem plastic, you can actually buy Genuine Honda plastic black/grey
I don't know where but I have seen it.

Paint it. It's durable, holds up well and should be easy to paint. Fitment is good, but it's ugly :mbiggrin:
Yes, I do have one.

Is it just the camera angle or does the lip really jut out that much at the bottom?

dupli-color actually makes a paint called "perfect match" paint. They sell every single ep color as well to (minus uk colors) and i can attest that it seriously matches pretty damn well. If you prep it proper and prime/ base/ clear it, you honestly cant tell a difference. It is perfect for small panels i wouldnt recommend painting your entire car with rattle cans lol

Fits okay. A few really small gaps, but not as bad as u would think. Make sure you secure it well, it's a bit on the thin side. Somewhat flimsy

Too much going on, not a fan. Your car was so simplistic and perfect, don't ruin it with that junk

Hated it, I had trouble making the damn thing fit right. The lip looked lip when your driving by but up close it wasn't all to great. So today I threw on a volvo lip =]
