I got the lip from a friend of a friend so dident pay to much for it.
Fitted my Spoon snorkel to day, had to butcher it a bit as it dident want to fit with the Zunsport grill but should do the trick.
And a few crappy phone pics, will be fitting my coilovers and getting the wheels powder coated next week then ill get some proper pic's.

I wish my car was black! Looks really good. Any plans to reinforce the boot lid? Ive read the spoiler can create enough downforce to dent it, there are a few threads about with people reinforcing them without resorting to the cr specific boot lid.

You can also get platic attachements to the boot lid from the cr and fit them, i plan on getting some when i fit an apr wing

The wing stands do look to be in the weak spot of the boot lid.

The reinforcement areas are at the edges.

Looks nice from the front, just needs lowering a bit.

PS it's 'didn't' rather than dident

Nick, your engine bay needs to be cleaned . Your black front grill makes me want to paint mine black too.

Very nice, that lip does look good

Are you planning any CR related work for the interior? I have the CR radio door on mine but would quite like the matching 'cup holder' (never put a cup in it myself) and switch plate. The sliding door on mine sticks so it would be a useful as well as cosmetic upgrade (I'm good at convincing myself of these things ), plus the silver coating on my existing plates are scuffed to buggery. I emailed CFL just before the weekend for a rough price shipped to the UK, the parts themselves are a darn sight cheaper than Honda UK. I'll let you know what they come back with, if you're interested?

Sounds good, i would be interested in seeing some figures. I'm quite happy with the interior of this one but would still like the Cr seats/door cards (depending on how astronomicly high they are).

Nick, I considered this wing myself as others have pointed you really need to reinforce the boot lid.

Most of the Americans fitting this wing prefer to change to a full CR boot lid but this is likely going to cost you alot. I looked into it and would suggest you order the J'S racing GT wing supports quite reasonably priced.
