A little too expensive for me, but since you only have to paint the side skirts it's all good. Remember to post pics when it's on.

They are discontinued as in they aren't making any new body kits. But some places have some parts of them left over.

They are discontinued. Thats why prices are high and you can rarely find a matching set

Good old supply vs. demand. I got mine from my local dealer also, but I convinced them to price match to Ray Laks. Was it worth the money? I think so.

$929 at the time. I didn't even have to show proof, so I probably could've told him $900. Anything less than that probably could've sent off a red flag (but I was telling the truth with $929). But this was almost a year ago, I don't know what Ray Laks charges now.

What color and what year? Like I said, Honda is no longer making new kits, but dealerships still have some leftover in stock in their warehouses.

ok seriously if people are really stealing off each other's car (i.e. lips, skirts, center caps...) then i have no sympathy for you. if you get caught you should get your ass beat. if i catch you, i will personally beat the shit out of you and run your ass over myself and feed you to my dogs.

moral to the story: please don't jack people's stuff. if you don't have it, you probably can't afford it. if you can't afford it, get a damn job and save up so you can buy it.

i'm glad we're all hearing this loud and proud. i have no tolerence and patience for thieves and scammers. we are all here to enjoy this hobby and to learn from each other.

please don't ruin it for some of us by taking the easy way out and jack other people's stuff. if you get caught, i'm sorry my friend, but you'll have to suffer the consequences of pure physical torment. i don't want to say it like this, but sometimes it's true.

im glad texas law allows a homeowner to shoot to kill anyone stealing property, even if its someone stealing from a neighbor. I got 10 357 rounds from my sub-compact glock for anyone trying to steal.

hahahaha no no. I am looking throught car adds and if I see one with a lip I will just offer the guy some money for it. ppl dont realise that there is a lip kit on the cars since only older ppl I see driving these cars here and they dont realy care so he can sell me the lip kit and keep the car for sale at the same price. therefore making more money.
