hell since it already was made apparent that it wouldn't be very cost effective for the Euro R, let Peter make his own for us. A whole new lip would be cool too so long as I don't have to modify my fog lights. That's the real issue with us 06 and up. Nothing just bolts on.

There's quite a few of us interested in the EuroR lip, we'll see how it fairs out.

I was planning on waiting it out for the 06' EuroR kit bc of the difficulty in getting it, but if supershyguy can make it I will definitely be getting it.

Let's get a count on how many people are willing to get the 06-07 Euro R front Lip.

We need 10 or more for this to happen.
Is everyone just interested in just the front?

I would be interested in a full lip kit only. Front, sides and rear.

I might be interested in the full kit as well. I would assume this wouldn't come painted though, correct?

haha, yea thanks for the reminder! I still need to buy the a spec supesion in the group buy i started, i still need to figure out what tires to buy, and get window tint done before i go for a body kit. And all of that is like $1500 and leaves me with no $$

Can the tyres not be left until later or are they getting to the point of no tread left?
What about going for springs over OEM shocks? I'd suggest the Swift Springs for that, and dropping the window tint.
Here's the order of importance I'd work to, with $1500 available right now:

Swift Springs - $300
Bodykit and painted $800 ish?
Swift/H&R F & R sway bars - $400 ish
Tyres - whenever funds permit in the future (if enough tread is left 'til that time)
Tint - whenever the funds permit in the future

Tint - whenever the funds permit in the future
Thanks for the insight and here is my mentality for what i'm doing:
1- i already have the CT sway bar in the box from when i took it off my old 04 TSX so that will go on whenever the weather gets decent enough for me to do it
2-i only have 1000 miles on the stock tires, the tires i need are for my Ron Jon 18x7.5 Servo's that i had bought for my old 04 TSX....they are sitting in my room along with my other set of wheels i need to take pictures of and sell. Also, my buddy can put them on for me and align the car for free so its just the price of the tires about $400-$450
3- After having gone with the eibach prokit, i really rather just stay away from springs. With the money used to buy the already bought sway bar and springs = the rough price of the a spec suspension in the group buy of $575
4- After having tint, i seriously have to have it....i hate having fully normal windows....just bugs me for a number of reasons (about $400 with felts and lifetime warranty)
5-the 06 body has a decent amount of flare to get me through until i decide to get the body kit...however, how much does a paint job cost for that?

So my order is swa bar whenever i feel like it, suspension to lower the car and get rid of the body roll and brake squat, tires for my wheels since i'm not a huge fan of the 06 wheels, tint just because i really just like it, then bodykit when i get enough money. however, depending on paint prices and price of the this body kit, i could buy the kit and jut hold off on painting it for awhile.....

Plus 1! Though the Euro R side skirts are sooo lame!!! they are slimmed out stock ones and look uselessly boring. Should make them like the Mugen.

supershyguy: i have to give u mad props for such skillful fiberglass work, and I also want to apologize for not giving you credibility before.. I am totally aware that quality and deadline are usually two conflicting requirements, but I am positive that everybody agrees that such a fine piece of finished product is definitely worth the wait.. I was initially satisifed with just a Euro-R lip for my 05 because I know I will feel horrible if I do scrape the mugen lip; however, I had always appreciated the agressiveness of the mugen style lip over the Euro R, and now that replacement (in case I crack it) doesnt cost an arm and a leg, I am definitely buying your product
