Does anyone know where to buy oem rear lip replacements/used ones?

I think I'm going to try a custom rear lip project with 3 'stacked' oem lips fused together with ABS sludge. Does anyone know where to source 2 oem rear lips? Any online places sell new oem deadstock items like that?

Thanks in advance

I think the rear comes off, I know that the sides do and the front does not, the front oem lip is attached to the bumper. When I got my oem sides painted I think I remember the guy being able to take the sides and rear off, but I had to bring my car in to get the front painted.

? my rear lip taps into my stock rear lip on the sides. I mean I'm sure you could get away with it, but what happens if you ever part the rear lip out?

I got the 94 accord 2dr mugen rear lip. so it doesn't fit snuggly over the stock lip. Had to do minor cuts, but looks good. Why would you part out?

hey man appreciate it, I definitely want it

yeah after thinking about all the hasstle it'll take to make an aftermarket lip to fit, and looking at how low the aftermarket lips fit, I wanted something lower/more oem looking. Hopefully my photochops don't decieve me, but it should sit pretty close to flush with the sides and front once done. Plus the abs sludge 'theoretically' will make it all one solid piece of plastic and should make it damn near unbreakable (those oem lips can take a beatdown and some)

thanks for the help guys

if one other person has a rear lip they don't need (or access to a junkyard one) I'd happily make it worth your while

You are right, as I stated in my post above, the front ones are part of the bumper, and that's the only ones that I've messed with, but found these and thought of this thread and flip
