You can get the front which is made for our CL for about $300 I found one on ebay for about $260. The rear you have to have custom mounted from an accord rear lip, most people use a wings west for that as well, to match the front WW lip that they actually make for our cars.

haha, they are very expensive, front lip alone is something like $250+ and the sides and back have to be retrofitted from an accord if I remember correctly? Someone check me on that. Anywho, it isn't a cheap mod, but it makes the car look even better, if you got them money to do it right, do it up!

Lip Kits
Wings West makes a front lip for our car, recently ABS has also came out with one.
As for sides and rear, you can custom fit 94-97 accord sides and rears. Keep in mind that if you go Wings West, there are three different looking rears, the 94-95, 96-97, and then the wagon rear.

How hard is it to modify?
For some, they claim the sides fit right on, for others, some minor cutting is done so that the door can open up regularly
The rear is another story. For the rear to fit on you have to cut out a ~2" section from the middle and then bond it back together. Most shops wont even attempt such a task since its hard to find a material that wont bend or crack. Please check with your local body shops before atempting these mods.
