your car probably doesn't have a lower lip because it's a dx/lx and came that way, or it's an ex/se and the front lip was removed.
why would we know what lips the junkyard is going to have when you get there?!?!?!? they have what they have, and you either like it, or you don't.
check the "installation process" in the diy section and look for 5gen lips. it's not that hard, you just line up tabs to holes.
absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Eh, the installation process is a little different than that... Basically, you take your bumper off, position the lip to where you want it, and drill into your bumper. Screw the lip down in the center (where you want it to be, took me 3 tries, so I have 3 little holes). Then you can continue around drilling holes where there are holes in the lip. Screw it down (washers help) and you're set. Took me and Jay all of 10 minutes to do it.
I have a 5th gen lip on my car (the one Jay, 92accordDX, got from Certifit)
Like uncle_el said, who knows what kind of deal you're going to get... Hoewver, I would say getting a brand new lip for $20 is a better deal than getting a used one for $10 from a junk yard. I was lucky and got a gently used one for a trade
And uncle_el, I'm guessing his "everyone" just means that many people seem to want the 90-91 grill because it's easier to hollow out. It at least seems to be the thing to do in Jersey (all the 90-91 CB7s around here have theirs hollowed out... all those owned by people who customize their cars, anyway.) I think I'm one of the few that hasn't considered it. I like my H dammit!

it will it just wont look right until you have the headlights from that year so they line up right.but it will fit.if you gonna change anything around like that its best to just get the headlights from that year,the grill,and also the bumper.that way it looks like its supposed too.oh ya corner lights too.
