the sides and rear will.. the front will not fit without modification...

these are NOT OEM and are fiberglass.

buy wisely and look around the forums a bit more to see the pros and cons of the OEM kit and replica kits...

basically... Fiberglass = much cheaper price, you have to paint, mostly good replacement but breaks easily.

OEM = Expensive, already painted, perfect fitment and will last you the long run.

granted the front lip is the only part that sees alot of action. the choice is really up to you though

alot of people run OEM front and sides and Fiberglass Rear.

Thanks for the reply's. I'm probably more inclined to grab the OEM front, for durability. The sides and rear tho, I'm not picky. I have after market exhaust tips, I'm just hoping that the rear end will clear the tips.

Goddamn!! lol. Mine aren't that big, maybe 3" and a bit the most, so I'm good to go. I just have to find the kit. Dealerships are probably going to be a ridiculous price point.

I remember when I had my integra and wanted to get GSR blades....$450 each was my quoted price from the dealer....I laughed all the way out the door.

yes they has lip kits anymore lol

EVERY dealer has ALL parts of the lip kit. they order it from a great big wide wearhouse. and it gets delivered to them.

finding a complete set in YOUR color is the hard part.

why does everyone assume they just dont have them these days? was there a rumor a while back that i missed that they burned them in a huge pile...

That's F*cking Ridiculous!

And Car Companies can't figure out why people go aftermarket all the time.

$880+taxes American= $1,000+ Canadian...even with the exchange rate not being that bad right now. Add in a little good ol' dealer market up and they'll try and rape me for something ridiculous around the tune of $1200 or so.

The price we pay for beauty haha.

and you most likely wont.. the lip kits are a huge hit on this website.. but you will hardly ever see them on the road...

alot of younger people driving TL's dont even know there is such a thing. they just type in Body kit on ebay.. and thats what they get lol.

its amazing how popular things on this website are make up such a small percentage of the TL modders on the roads...

yeah that's my backup plan but i'm in the middle of getting the sides from a guy and he already has one thats ssm and another in gold... for some reason... i didn't ask why but i may get 200 shipped so i'm hoping that goes through

If your looking for Honda Inspire badges, you could try Max Motorsports. They get all kinda's of JDM stuff, wouldn't surprise me

I'm starting to get a bit disheartened looking tho, it's been pretty hard so far. I might just go with a good set of coilovers and call it a day.
