02 lip on 01 TL
i never came across an 02 lip on a 01 tl .. or i guess i didnt look hard enough but i decided to try it .. took me two days to do this and just wondering what u guys think! i havent bolted it on yet, its just stuck on. sorry for the bad quality and small pic... unfortunately, i do not own a camera.. except for my sidekick slide..

and it actually makes you sit higher too.. since the 99-01 lip hangs under the bumper.

The problem with that lip is the lower radiator opening doesnt line up with the 02-03 lip. it just doesnt flow.

wow i never realized how similar the front of the 99-01s look compared to the 98-02 accords. especially with the open grille you have.

but to each his own. try and take a better pic if you think it looks good.

Like everyone said...not good for the 99-01 years. It just doesnt flow right.... but you do have one thing going for you, if you were to do it, best on a black car so that the lines are hidden a bit more..

Makes the front end look like it has a bodykit instead of a lip, not digging it
