Should i buy this lip?!?

[RustyBoX]

hey all,

I came across a shop near my house that sells type-r lips for integras. Now I saw some discussions saying that the poly urethane one is better, but the ones he's selling are abs plastic type-r lips and side skirts. The price is 590$ all taxes included for the front lip, side skirts and rear lip. The guy says it's a special, but is it a good price? and is the abs plastic one still decent? Here's the site but won't give you much more infos (the lip is on the front page at the right bottom) : http://www.billmotorsports.com/home-en.php

Thx !

Yeah what they said.

And SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR ABS?!?! What is he, an Acura dealership?

Honestly, you could get OEM for that price.

$600 doesn't sound too bad for front, sides, and rear.

polyurethane > abs plastic > fiberglass

Well I found someone selling some poly urethane on the forum and he ships to canada, so ill compare prices and see if i can afford the good ones

:thumbs up I had on on my old EK hit so many curbs with it thing never broke.

ABS plastic is pretty resilient too. When my car was stolen and wrecked, the fucker smashed into a tall curb and then hit a retaining wall. It did horrible damage to the engine bay and subframe. The ABS lip I had came off, but did not break OR crack. Even the OEM fender lining was tore up. It impressed me.

Now I'm all confused damn . Did anyone had any BAD experience with the abs plastic or is it just a reputation?

true.

PU is your best bet.

But if I can't get my hands on a poly urethane lip.. Should I just forget about having a lip rather than buying the abs plastic one? Any opinions?

Order one from password jdm. I've said it before, and I will say it again. I bought mine from them and the fitament is awsome-just like a speedo.
