Type-R Front Lip in Urethane???

[civicjoe8]

I'm sold on the USDM Type-R front lip but I can't find it in urethane. Is that b/c they don't exist and are only made in plastic?

Might want to tell us the year of your car. '96-'98 is different than '99-'00 and they have completely different lips.

I have a '96-'98. Any help would be appreciated.

theres no such thing as a usdm type R , and if you want a type R style lip, please get the one thats for your year car, the 99-00 style ones (like on the Si) look like s**t on 96-98 front bumpers,

I could be mistaken but check out this site:

The first lip for $80 is what I believe to be the USDM Type R front and the second lip for $99 is titled "Type R JDM front lip." The JDM is larger in height and I've seen several application pics.

If it were me and I had a 96-98 I would get the second one for $99. Looks 18,000 times better on those bumpers than the first one.

The first one is a JDM "styled" front lip. It's pretty much an '99-'00 Si lip styled to fit your car. It sticks out too far imo, particuarly on a '96-'98. The second one is a JDM TypeR "style" front lip. It's a replica of the Civic TypeR front lip for the '96-'98 Civic.

Oh, and search about StreetStyler on here before you buy anything from them. They have a bad reputation and I hear horrible customer service.

the first one is the 99-00 style one, the second one will look infinitely better than the first one.

and just to clarify

first one=99-00 type R style lip (not supposed to be for 96-98 but stupid companies make ones that fit)
second one=96-98 type R style lip (made for you bumper, looks really good.)

customer service does suck, but i always get my s**t from them, sometimes it takes a while. but they never reply to my emails.

Also, the first one is styled after the 99-00 CTR/Si lip (same lip), but the replicas, even for the 99-00's, are not exactly like the real thing. They stick out further.

Thanks for all the replies. Doing research on lips can get a little confusing.
