which lip

Just looking at ideas. which lip? its a red integra gsr and Im hoping to have a CF hood before this. I dont know if I want to have to paint it thats why im thinking about CF but im not sure if I like the look of a cf lip or not. If you have any other ideas let me know

Spoon CF


Normal Type R lip


CF Type R lip (no good picture)


*EDIT* sorry about the really bad typing error on the poll

Re: which lip

To my knowledge, there is no Mugen lip for the US integra. Only a full kit for the JDM ITR.

Re: which lip

you're absolutely right , but there are imitation lips floating around on sites. it looks very similar to the spoon lip. just run a seach in google "mugen lip integra" and you'll fine stores that sell them.

Re: which lip

I think the type r looks the cleanest on there... it just blends better

Re: which lip

It depends on what the car looks like.. and what you plan on your car having in the future. Its not just about which lip is better.... it not about which shirt looks better, but the entire outfit.

Re: which lip

right now car is stock with smoked corners. it will have a lip, one of the 3 above. CF hood, lowered and maybe some skirts I want to get my hands on the OEM skirts but that’s about it. I’m thinking about a Type R wing but before I go there it will be running with type-r's and not just looking like them

Re: which lip

What color?

I kind of like the combo that is set up with the Teg in the first picture. CF hood and lip. And if you have smoked turn signals.. that would just add on... it would look good.

I'd go for the spoon.

the only knock against the cf lip is that you can crack it too easily. the front lip needs to be the most durable part of a kit, period. based solely on looks, i'd definitely say the cf itr lip, but daily driving you'll need a urethane lip.

that’s my car in the avatar but before the smoked corners

also does the CF crack that easily? if so that blows the idea out of the water

Re: which lip

depends. most manufacturers mold fiberglass into the shape of the lip and just cover it with only one sheet of cf and they call it a cf lip . if the whole thing is made out of cf than it'll be very strong.

Thats right.

And even if it was fiberglass with a CF lay... its still very strong. I have a fiberglass mugen front lip... its been nearly 5 years of me grinding it down and two accidents and its still on my car looking as nice as it ever did. I also have custom true CF front diffusors under my mugen lip and I seriously grind that thing whenever I go in and out of driveways and parking lots.... the bolts seem more dammaged than the cf.
