Replica OEM lip kit ready for paint :D..

AsianCowboy · 11-12-2009, 04:07 PM

Hello fellow luders,

I am sending in my replica oem lip kit in for paint this weekend and just wanted to share my pictures. If you're asking me is replica worth it? Hmm..I don't think so. If you have to drop 7 bills for your legit oem. DO IT!! It was a pain in the ass to make it fit decently. Anyways, I have also a type-s flush mount spoiler ready for paint as well. Can anyone advise me how to wire up the up the LED? I've heard that you must extend the wire to make it reach to the USDM trunk..?

deludedbbsik · 11-12-2009, 04:29 PM

you need to lower your car after the lips are painted.

Honda-R · 11-12-2009, 04:30 PM

Looks like it fits pretty good. What did you do to make it fit right? And talk to jdlude99 bout the spoiler thingy

AsianCowboy · 11-12-2009, 04:36 PM

the side skirts probably stick out about.. 3/4 inch out, the rear is not flush with the rear bumper, ill take some pics later. Basically a lot of dremmeling, the replica's go right over the stock side skirts and rear lip

newbie. you have to take out the oem side and rear and replace it with the replica...no wayy it goes over it. you really do speak up to being a newbie.

AsianCowboy · 11-12-2009, 05:01 PM

deludedbbsik, i'm going to ask you, do you have replica side's and rear? If not i'm going to ask you to please stop flamming my ass about newbing my words. If you really would like proof it fits over the stock sides and rear I will take a picture to post before paint. Until then thanks again for the input.

Honda-R · 11-12-2009, 07:28 PM

lol. replicas dont have the brackets that oem have, so he's going to have to put it over. lol....

MommysLittleMonster · 11-12-2009, 10:34 PM

That's like wearing boxers outside of your tighty whiteys...

Fitment looks alright. Looking forward to after pics- good luck!

(PS- slam that ho, looks like you can go offroading with that wheel gap!)

deludedbbsik · 11-13-2009, 12:30 AM

i'm not bashing. why you mad, why so angry? relax!

ehh thats just weight for me, that would a no no for me.
you should have looked around for a better fitting one like the oems than the replicas.

hnguy4 · 11-13-2009, 01:19 AM

fitment looks pretty good for a replica

your front wheels are backwards by the way..unless you already knew that and like 'em that way

AsianCowboy · 11-13-2009, 09:53 AM

yeah lol, directional tires from previous owner.

LMAO, good shit^^^^

Finished paint looks good though, but the whole kit will look infinitely better once you lower the car.

AsianCowboy · 01-14-2010, 09:29 AM

got around to putting my lip kit on, hope you guys like it. The color on the side skirts and rear lip is off white. :[ Not enough pearl in it. Other than that it's all gravy.

'01_5speed · 01-14-2010, 09:54 AM

wow looks great!

bb4thewin · 01-15-2010, 02:18 AM

Yea, the paint is pretty off (maybe the camera makes it more obvious?)
but otherwise, good job

as for wiring your spoiler, just splice it into your brake light wire.

JayJ · 01-15-2010, 02:31 PM

looks pretty nice even though the paint isn't identical..
i'm still pretty jealous. can't wait until i get the funds for a lip kit and etc.
how much did it cost for you to get them painted?

blackpool · 01-15-2010, 04:53 PM

wow is it the camera or the paint being off a lot? good fitment though
