i'm going to buy a type-r lips

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-26-06, 17:06

as the title said im going to buy a type-r lip for $20 is that a good price for one? anyone got any pics of an mx6 with a type-r lips other that that gold or brown one? and its it alot of work to make it fit on my mx6? its from an 2001 acura integra. the lip is only 2 weeks old. so i think its a god price. anyone agree? im going to buy it in about 20 - 30 mins so i need someone to answer.

for a while dealers put a lip on the mx6. would probably look nicer if you found one...

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-26-06, 23:32

i just bought it. i been working on it. here are some of the pictures i took. next week is bondoing.

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-26-06, 23:55

ok so the tpye-r lip not just from a 1994-1997 works but also 1998-2001. this is wat i got so far.

i had to cut this much of to make it fit. this is the right side cut...

this is the lip as you can tell i had to cut alot...

this it the the right side with the half the lip on( not bolted yet untill bondoed down the middle, as you can see zip ties are holding it up)

as you can see i only got half of it on...

this is the left side only half a lip before cut...

then the left lip again but this time cut...

this is the left side...

this is wat i have to bondo, not alot of bondoing need...

it will just make it to be bolted on...

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-27-06, 8:13

i'll post some up as i go. but i got to wait untill friday to buy the bondo and primer and then the paint. is it hard to bondo? i dont think its that hard. i'm a first timer with bondo.

**pearsonmx6** · 11-27-06, 8:33

you cant bondo something that is flexable it will chip off

HiPrsur · 11-27-06, 9:55

not bad, but i think the 240 lip looks ALOT better, and aside from that, no cutting/bondo needed....just fit and bolt...u can see a pic in my sig....

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-27-06, 10:24

i'll epoxi it or jb weld it then use bondo to make it look nice and even. hiprsur i also like the 240sx lip but i havnt had anyluck finding one in the junkyard. this lip was cheap and is a temparary. I'm going to buy a new front bumper since you can see its broken on the passenger side. my dad left it off gear and with off the e-bark on a small hill and it went down and hit a light post. so when i get a new front bumper i'm going get the 240sx lip. so this lip might be for sell in Janarary or Febarary of 2007.

not bad, i want to see the finished product... dont get me wrong, i like the style of the type-r lip, its just the work thats needed to fit it, is what i dont like...

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-28-06, 23:37

yea, will i just got free epoxy bond which is bondo for pools. it could be used for above water and underwater so its water proof.

**PHOENIX_MX6** · 11-29-06, 0:15

this is wat i bondo with the epoxybond. it broke so i decided use it right now. its easy to mix. all you need is to rub it together. when it hardens i will sand it down.
