have you test fitted your lip yet? sometimes with the replicas in order to get it perfectly on "easily", you might have to take off your bumper?

if it doesnt fit properly dont force it, it will crack due to the fact that it is ABS Plastic. Take your bumper off and use a hair dryer to heat the lip n mold it to the bumper. GOOD LUCK!!

i have a mugen lip and its on a 94 integra......not hard to instal just work your way from one side to the other thats what i did also u may have to pull alittle because usually they are really snug.....you might want to heat it while pulling the corner to avoid the cracking ....but for these lips theres not a real big need to go through the hassle of taking off ur bumper....

You're right Jeff, "style" was the correct word to use rather than "replica"

^yes the civic has a mugen lip, and the integra has a mugen lip...they are not the same shape or design.

some poeple really like the civic mugen lip so they made them fit integra bumpers. westwings made a knock off that was a lot cheaper than the real mugne lip kit.

oh ok..so the black lip up there is the acutal civic mugen lip design...and they made one for integras..cause everyone likes it...but the silver one is the REAL mugen lip design for integras...so wingswest made a lip kit for integras...that look just like the real mugen lip for integra but with a vent. right?

I can't believe people are still so confused about this topic...

All of these ABS Plastic lips are horrible replicas! The "Mugen" lips that are sold are all (poor) replicas of the Authentic 99-00 EK Mugen front lip

The ABS "Type R" lips are all replicas of Authentic 99-00 Civic Type R/SiR Front lips. They even make these "Type R" lips for Lexus IS300, Cavalier, etc. hahaha


The original Wings West Honda body kits were all copies and variations of authentic Mugen kits as well
