Default Rear Lip and Front Bumper..

Well,
After last night's run in with a snow bank to avoid being t-boned by a 4 Runner Toyota, I now need a new front bumper and paint for the bumpe and front lip, since its all peeled off and the bumper is smashed. I figured I would wait untill spring, and at the same time get a rear lip for the car.
It just has the stock Si (SIR) front lip and side skirt lip's. I like those, and just want to add a small rear lip.
What do you guys suggest, does Honda make one, or is there an after market rear lip that will work, and look nice with these?
Here's some pictures of my car resting on steelies (Winter) and what she looks like.

There is a rear lip made by Honda, but it's really rare. If you want to spend some cash, there's a few on H-T every now and then. Otherwise you can buy a replica at www.jdm-****.com or the link Flip gave you.

I had to take my front and rear lip off when I got in an accident, my car looked so naked. I hated it.

Anyways, the rear lip makes everything look more in line. I suggest getting one if you're going to put a front lip on again. I know you probably think your car looks weird without the lip kit, but I want you to know it looks fine. P.S. Are you going to lower your car? Your paint looks great.

Nice car for sure! I've been debating on getting the lip kit or body kit.

I think you should drop first, and then judging by the amount of ground clearance you have after the drop, choose what lip you want

^ well, the oem lip will obviously give the most ground clearance... the Type-R and Mugen lips really don't have a big effect on the ground clearance... but the spoon lip looks like it drops down a good bit

I have all the parts to drop'er (springs and struts) but im throwing them on after spring.
I want to to look like the OEM ones.
Yes its hurts so much to see my bumper smashed up, and my lip off and peeling in my garage, ohhh the pain!
Thanks guys

EDIT: Heres the one I think i'm going to get.This Should bring the rear in line with the side and front hopefully. Its on 85 shipped too. "1996-2000 Honda Civic Type R Rear Bumper Lip"
