Noob here

Hey, i'm new to the forums but i just bought a pretty decent 1999 Acura 2.3 CL for 6 grand.

I was searching through the forums and surfed websites and noticed theres only one body kit out the, the BW.

I read in a thread somewhere u can modify accord front bumpers to fit my '99 CL, and hopefully someone can help me out with this and explain a little bit more.

Thanks a lot, and its great to be a part of the CL Forums

Welcome. You can also get a WW front lip if you can find it.

search high and low for the wingswest front lip if you're looking at really buying anything - its subtle, but alot cleaner than the BW.

that, and welcome aboard son

Any body shop would be able to make the side skirts fit or any bumper fit. Just make sure you buy parts for a 94-97 Accord and you will be fine.
