found a type r lip for sale~!
http://www.automotivetouchup.com/ is the cheapest place i have found for factory paint code matched spray cans. I did my spoiler with them and it was perfect match.
But for 1/3 of the price you can look around walmart/autozone/advanced/lowes and find a paint that ALMOST matched your car. I did this on my grill, and even though from a distance it looks darker than my exterior, because it is a smaller incon****uous part of the car I deem it "good enough" for 6 dollars.
if you can find a big enough sample paint chip, maybe on the chassis in your engine bay, you may even be able to have a hardware store custom mix you some matching paint.
dont wax plastic parts after you clear coat them for quite a few months. I made this mistake and now my grill looks kinda milky, it would not pollish in nice like the rest of car.

&umm those following this thread, i just got off the phone with the guy and he told me somebody came to look at the lip with a 97' civic and it didn't line up. he told me the tag was for a 99-00' plus it comes with everything except for the packaging. Sounds real, but had a thick cholo accent haha. (im mexican so i can bag if i likee)
