A cheap way to make an early 4th gen look better!

My original '90 EX lip was damaged, so today I decided to replace it with a 92-93 EX lip. The piece only cost $70 CDN and only required the redrilling of two pilot holes. Fits perfectly and looks much better than the original! I really like the flared edge and scalloped centre. Here are some pics of my installation day, including my super-ghetto jack.

whoaaaa is that so-called jack made of wood? i gota get me one of those!! nice lip btw!!

dont you guys know anything about cars??? TO make you car look good. Instead of buying oem parts why dont you buy a after market front bumper. I would say either a wings west big mouth or a black widow front bumper. It looks 10 times better than it did. THen you could add your mesh grills and so on. Also you could just get the whole body kit and have look even better maybe show material if you do your interior and/or have engine mods such as engine swaps, turbos, nitros(please dont associate nitrous with FAST AND THE FURIOUS it just makes you look stupid.

Yes, I do know a little bit about cars ;)
I happen to prefer the stock look. I also happen to not **really** care if my car looks like a show car, as long as it's fast.

Looking nice! There is nothing wrong with the Stock Look its the real honda look! :)

My bumper used to look like that with the chips in the paint. Then i got into a accident ran into the back of some lady my insurance paid for my damage. I got a new front bumper and hood and they clear coated the rest of my car. So no more chips in the paint!

Thanks for stating your opinion but i'm sure Smitty doesn't care. EVERYONE has there idea of what they like and some ppl like the clean stock look

Smitty where did u get the lip from ? I need a cheap one. Scrap yards around here don't have 4 gen accords.

I got mine through a friend who has a contact at an OEM body parts reseller. It cost $69 for the lip. I can ask him for another, if you're interested.

no that's ok. i found one for $32. just need the money :(
