I like it without the lip. But its going to be hard to mount an intercooler and keep it hidden on a crx.

i think im going to leave the lip off because i like not scraping or worrying about scraping everywhere

and since my comp ratio is low enough for me i would just replace this with a new OEM one

will it be better to replace with OEM or just leave the one i have on there now?
