My lip is gone...

It looks like the previous owner painted over the black rubber trim along the top of the lip. If you want new trim, I found a place to get stuff that's really close (not available through Honda).
Actually yeah I was wondering. I think I kinda miss the SiR lip just a little. It kind of matched with my CF hood. Now I need to get my side skirts painted too...But I've been wanting to so just another reason. I've sanded, primed, but never painted body panels. Is it bad?
clean lip man.
cant wait to see it painted.

Let me get a price quote in a couple of days. I think it was maybe $10-12 or something when I bought it. I was very picky about the design of the trim though. It's not exactly like it, but it's really close (most is way way off).
Nope.
Thought you might like to see some green ones.
I have a whole folder of photos of this lip kit (on all different bodies).Oh wow...
And you got it repainted. Ouch lol.
Seeing green ones is exciting though lol. I need a rear lip now...
Did Honda make a side skirt to match? Because I think the front and rear lip sit pretty low in regard to the sideskirts...Side shots?

The sideskirts are the same. Different part number, but the same. I believe watisjdm's car actually originally came with the full package, but by the time he got it the front was gone. He has sideskirts and the rear since he bought the car.
Here's some pics though. First, some file photos from Honda. Sorry for the bad photo of the photo of the front. It was difficult to get a decent photo of it. It was the best I could do from the manual.
Also some pics of mine with the stock sideskirts (technically mine were sold as Si sideskirts).

The rear lip matches the sideskirts because of the flair, but it looks like the front lip sit just that much lower. I guess I'll have to live with it or find sideskirts that flow perfectly(I doubt that'll happen). I can't wait to get it all painted though.Thinking about doing it myself to save on labor but...Would I get a cheaper price if I prepped it for paint and literally just had them paint it?
Probably. I'd call around. I got my front bumper, front and rear lips, driver's sideskirt (had a chip in it) and grille shell painted for $300. When he didn't get the color perfect (he knew I was pickY), he repainted it all for free. Oh, and he did it all tricoat too.
