USDM lip kit

[Mcklveensi]

Could anyone who has put on the USDM lip kit post up pics and any probs with fitment (if there were any). Im getting ready to buy it next week and id just like to see some pics to make sure its worth and hear straight from you guys what you think of it. Thanks a lot!

USDM FTL. just from my personal experience. the fiberglass cracked when shipped here. so i had to pay to get it repaired. fitment was a pain in the ass. the sideskirts needed to be fabricated so much that they wouldnt look right on the car, so i had to order real JDM CTR skirts. by the time i was done with everything i couldve paid for the authentic CTR parts. if ur a body specialist and u know what ur doin then the USDM kit might be worth it. but i had to get a body shop to do and the guy said he will never do a kit like that again. it wasnt worth it. it came out great when it was all said and done but still i could be rocking the real CTR kit if i didnt go the cheap route. just save for the real parts and i promise u wont be disapointed

heres my car last summer with the usdm rep mugen lip, ctr rep sideskirts, and ctr rep wing. All fiber glass. The sides skirts fit okay, with some gaps. The front lip didnt fit too well. It cracked and wasnt all that flush. Wing fit perfect though I upgrade to jdm bumper and lip because i wanted something nice and perfect fitting.

The ctr rep. front lips fits pretty well, but the side skirts needs work and sometimes are pretty horrible, and the rear lips i have seen gaps in it.

Does anyone have kaminari lip kit

[Mcklveensi]

soooo pretty much dont do it huh. Well im not too good with fiberglass, although i am going to school for it in the fall, well for auto body actually, but thats besides the point. My uncle does body work, if it dont fit right and i have him fix the shit, will it be worth it? Im a broke college student, gotta go cheap haha.

ep3s look good without sideskirts and lips too, don't hate on a naked ep3

lol

HFP front lip and rear lips are good quality, but be careful you don't break the front lip when parking, it comes down pretty low. If you have stock sideskirts just keep what you have.

If the stock sideskirts aren't massive enough for you go with the jumbo sized CTR ones. They are similar to the HFP ones but the fiberglass tends to look smoother, HFP sideskirts for the ep3 often look messed up and wavy when you look at the car from the side.

JDM is nice too, but the price is very high. You could just get JDM bumpers and spend some time thinking about what body kit you want. Do your research before you blow your $.

I'd rather have a sleeper with more power under the hood than a riced out ep3 with a stock. Maybe you should forget the looks and spend the money on a turbo, SC or nitrous.

Good points, but I like the OEM CTR look...But the kit is too much for me..

I just need upclose pics of the sides, esp the front and rear portion of the side skirt where the screws are.

I like your thinking, ive often thaught about that, but money being short, and car haveing 110,000 miles on it is throwing me away from any motor work, when i blow the motor and warranty covers it is when ill start going fast lol. but for now, i gotta roll in style haha...

How does this side skirt sit on the side panel? Does it clip to the rear metal? Or is it flush?

need some side skirt pics, up close if possible
