The lip came from K2 Motors (dont know website right off hand but they have one, just google them). The lip is for a 94-97 Integra and it is the Mugen lip. As far as fitment, it doesnt curve that well with the bumper at first. When I got the lip there was a tab that ran across the top that I had to chop off. Then I put the two screws in the middle (one under each fog light hole). Then to take up the slack on the corners, I had a friend pull the ends towards the back as tight as he could while I drilled a hole on each side. When I drilled the hole I made sure to go through the thick plastic holder that comes down from the side markers. Then I put a screw through and the a washer and nut on the back. I am going to leave the screws showing but I am going to invest in some nice stainless steel screws that have flat heads and Im going to recess them in the lip. Now I just have to cut off the extra on the sides which will probably only take a second with a hack saw. If anyone needs any more help or pictures let me know. I can write a HOW-TO if I need to. Although I may not get it done until this weekend. Im always willing to help other MX-6ers.
By the way Karma is always enjoyed. Last edited by projectmx6ls : 1-25-06 at 16:50. |

projectmx6ls, you said you had to bend the lip. Are you putting excessive force on the lip or was it just a small bend to get it to fit? |

For the most part is was a small gap so it didnt take much force. Just enough to pull snug around the corners. You'd be surprised on how well it fit after cutting that tap on the top. I wish I would have done this 3 years ago before I got my bodykit. With that lip and the trunk lip spoiler my car looks so good. Instead of having one of those "you can tell a teenager drives that car and I betcha it isnt even fast" look, to a look of "there is just something about that car, it must be fast". In my opinion, once its painted it will be a more intimidating car than it was with a body kit and everything. My only problem that I can decide on is should I paint the front lip the same color the car is going to be (all white) or should leave it the semi-gloss black?

My lip is made of ABS plastic and I think most lips are made of ABS plastic. I guess if it didnt fit like you wanted it to, you could always try heating it up in spots with a heat gun and try to make it mold to your bumper. But I am very satisfied with my Lip. I could have asked for it to go any better. It sures beats the heck out molding in my Supra taillights that I have.
