is it used? if it is indeed an imitation type r lip, you can get a new knock off on ebay for 42 shipped. just throwing it out there, maybe you are too excited to wait for it to be shipped. you might wanna make sure its off of a 99-00 car, cause im pretty sure you will have fitment issues if his was a 96-98.

oh, and the link i sent was the cheapest imitation type r, but also I have bought a groundwire kit from that seller, the shipping was very fast and I was happy with the product, it actually came with directions too.

never bought exterior parts from them though, so i cant speak for fitment

hmm, okay i'm still debating either to do my sidemarkers first (which i'm skeptical on doing the cuts) or getting my type r front lip
(and maybe a rear one too)

In my opinion the rear lip is kinda lame looking, but other people might feel differently. I would get the front lip first, it would prolly look better if u painted it to match the car too, but you can always do it later if you dont like it black
