they r cheap, bendable, and have good styles. but they scuff up easy and crack easy. if you're a good driver and always remember to slow down on bumps and going down steep areas where the front of your car wont be level with the rest of your car u'll have no problems. watch out for parking blocks they'll kill ya

o yea accord=inspire. i ordered form them like couple weeks ago and just recieved it 2 weeks ago. the spoon lip right. im actually really satisfied with it. it just takes them a long ass time to ship for me but no problems. make sure you use paypal cause they sometimes accidently double charge. but best bet for the price if you want a spoon cause ebay sometimes sends you the mugen one not the spoon. plus i live close to you. i say order it but u shud really call them first to see if you have stock. they didtn have stock for me and i waited and waited no notification.

Well, first, if you plan on getting a lip, make sure you're ready to drive with it. Like Mugen said, watch bumps, slopes and especially parking. I dont have a lip, but plan on getting one and ive been trying to watch how i park. If nothing else, just learn to back into spots.

IMO, ABS lips are the best. They may not look as cool as CF ones, but theyre cheaper and if you do accidentally scrape it or hit something, it wont crack in half the first time.

HMS is a good place. They have ABS front ANd rear lips.

Had an ABS on a different car...hit a squirrel and it cracked. Polyurethane FTW

[wagonkid]

They are nice but be warned if your car is lowered and you go on a incine or a deep dip you lost money thats the down fall, fiberglass ones are easy to repair

couldnt have said it better myself. practice as if you already have the lip and learn the size of your cb
