looked decent....basically $100 shipped. So I buy it. WOW, thats all i can say. It finally came today and I was soo excited till I pulled it out of the package. It sticks out about 8 inches too far on each side of the bumper, has NO mounting holes, does not even line up with the stock ones. and does not look like the pic at all. I checked the stock that was on it and its right. 92-95 coupe/hatchback is what it says. so IM like whatever f**k it ill just mount it. so I get it lined up in teh center and go to pull the sides in to mount it and one of the ends break off cause it just wasnt fitting. nice waste of $100. It looked decent but damn does it suck. I have the s**t mounted and i just do not like it. It stick out way too far does not look like a type r lip....looks rice if you ask me. oh well, live and learn

Maybe you got a lip from a different year car. Maybe the box says 92-95 but the lip is for a different year car. Maybe the company got it mixed up.

...My advice, get an OEM type R lip, not the ABS ones. ...
too bad there wasn't one for 92-95 Civics...

yeah, those ABS Dynamic's Type R/Mugen knock-off lips are hit or miss. I've seen some that fit perfectly and i've seen some that don't even come close.

You should look into a WW RS kit for you coupe. It's a little more money, but definately worth it. It's like the age-old saying goes: 'you get what you pay for'

Did you read through the sellers feedback?? There are a few negatives that had problems with lip fitments and wrong lips being sent.

yea yea, i know you take a chance buying s**t off ebay but i usually get good results. It says both on the box and on the lip itself 92-95 civic 2/3dr. So im pretty sure i got the right lip. I dont think its the sellers fault its just the company. I looked into the mugen replicas and I just dont like the look of them. Ill prolly end up sticking with this one and just trying to use a small piece of fiberglass to make a new corner and bondo etc. Ill get a picture later today of exactly what is messed up...who knows. Im not too worried about it for the time being considering i just purchased a turbo/manifold/downpipe/FMIC/IC pipes and im gonna start fabbing all that up shortly, ill just kinda worry about the lip later lol..

i was just gonna say the same thing. They have a Mugen OE Urethane Front Bumper Lip on JDMShit for $149 shipped,that is similar to what you are looking for if you didnt like the Mugen Front Lip V2.
