BYS looks retarded with no FMIC. You can see the radiator support, which looks tacky IMO, and there's no reason to have it if you don't need more airflow (and no, it being m4d jdm tyte, y0! is not a good reason to buy something). Stock 99/00 bumper looks 10x better.

I like the BYS because it's a little different from stock while still clean. You don't see it everywhere like you do with a 99-00 stock front end. Normally I wouldn't consider getting something different than the stock bumper just to be different to be a good excuse for getting rid of the stock bumper because most stuff doesn't look better than the stock bumper... but that BYS really looks ten times better than the stock bumper, even with a lip.

If I got w/ type r lips what would I do on the sides? Just go w/ the stock flat bar thing? What about a hood? andd the same questions for the buddy club 2.

I'd say with a front/rear lip combo keep the stock side skirts.

But if you're going with the Buddy Club 2 front bumper, I'd say go with the Buddy Club 2 side skirts and rear bumper.


Stu, you own a del sol. We already know you don't have taste But seriously, the BYS bumper isn't as uncommon as you'd think... 5 minutes spent on Honda-Tech will confirm this. Besides, are you even thinking about the price of a BYS bumper when you're talking about it? I mean, come on... $200 buys you a polyurethane spoon front lip. Multiply that by three and you have enough for a BYS bumper made of fiberglass with a molded carbon fiber lip just begging to hit the ground.
