BACKLIP Installed!
after such a long ass time in the bodyshop.. my back lip is finally done
paint was fresh, i couldnt wash my car so i only snapped a few quick photos...
i'll set up a photoshoot with my friend very soon..
well here it is
I got a question for klepto and nippon... how do you make your backlip stick in the middle.. my 3m tape keeps popping out a bit.. it seems like its going to peel off cuz the lip was made for flatter surface and we have a tip on cars.

thanks, yea i dont care what everyone says about the wing.. im gunna keep it..
this is the 94-95 wagon rear lip... but the center looks a lil messed when you see it in person because the 3M tape is trying to come off.
yea i dont think its low enough ethier.. its on prokits right now.

didn't know you found the wagon kit.. cuz i was looking for a while and gave up.. lol
that center mess... like i said, screw some bolts where u see the gaps..
and bolt them in, bondo it, sand, and then repaint it..
did u do it? or did ur shop do it? how much did it run you...?
I personally like the wing, but u need to lower it more.. it looks too high.. u know..

that sounds like an okay idea but i dont want holes in my bumper..
i brought it to a shop to do.. it cost way too much lets just say...
that spoiler only looks good from certain angles.. i actually didnt want taht spoiler.. i thought it was too high .. but there was no other choice.. and i wanted to complete the full wingswest look... so now its complete.. well without sides. haha

thanks.. haha all our backlips are slightly different which is cool.. but klepto yours stands out the most haha.. it looks almost like a bodykit or something, its nice..
im planning on adding like tsx reflectors on the back lip like the beemers have and couple of other cars.. what do you think.. i got the reflectors already.. they are perfect size.. just that the exhaust is in the way so i have to place them farther.. how do you think it would look?

It's amazing how similiar the 2 cars look..If you screw at the bottom of the lip no one will be able to tell. That is what I did to my front lip. These guys may have an accord wagon lip

i remember seeing your car i think last year...i distinctly remember it because of your spoiler. i didn't know it was you until i saw this pic. anyways, what bodyshop did you go and get it done, how much? did you go there to do your ww lip too? how much was the ww lip installed for if you did do it there??? just curious cause i have a ww lip that needs to be painted and installed... i haven't found the time to really look around yet...

Cocoa why dont you put on the lip?
Chiny-J cool i'll look out for your car, i actually live right downtown toronto.. thats my buddys house... i got my work done at ABC autobody.. they are the official bodyshop for all the Toronto Honda cars... prices depend on the guy you get to quote your car.. but painting and installing a front lip shouldnt be taht expensive.. maybe 150 Canadian

because i'd have to get it molded on....it's cut in half, and i don't like the way it was cut.....and I'm not about to spend a few hundred to have it molded on...rather put that into some upgraded brakes, better shocks, or anything that will enhance performance, not looks....
