don't like it too much, but i def wouldn't buy it from ebay. i've boughten so many things off ebay, and so many things NOT from ebay, and ebay is just **** quality no matter how legit it looks. it's a big beware imo

You don't know if it'll line up right or not, but its hard to find both in a package deal.

how do i tell if they will fit? or if they don't fit is it easy to make them fit?

@sfazngiants that's why i think that both lips(if they fit) is a good price, but its ebay >.>

You really cant tell if they will fit unless it is an OEM part being installed on an OEM bumper.

Anyways, I grabbed one of the front/rear lip ebay kits over this past summer. The front fit nicely (non-OEM bumper), but the rear looks horrible (OEM bumper) and will need some more modifying to look right.

You would want to leave it out in the sun all day so that it becomes more flexible and easier to work with. Either that, or get a heat gun and use that to warm the lip up.

Well im at work and cant get on ebay because the blocked it. But i dont know if i would buy a lip package for $95. I know my front Si stock lip was alot more than that. I want to say in the $300 range. But it is OEM from Honda. I have one laying in my garage right now that was taken off when i wrecked my car. I think it is still in good shape. If i remember right it only has a crack on the under side of it. I will look tomorrow morning and try to get a pic of it and throw it up in the forsale section. Now for the rear lip. You cant even order a OEM lip from Honda. They discontinued them. I tryed to order one when i ordered my front lip. So you might have to go after market on that one.
