that lip looks great im thinking of picking that up! only problem is its not OEM.
it looks like it fits great but its missing the rubber gasket between the lip and bumper, that the OEM has.
that lip will scratch your bumper if you ever take it off, you will see the scratches

As far as spugen goes....
I've seen their exhausts and I think tey make great systems. If your going to buy a system they have on the market then great, but as far as having them make a custom system in house...well that's a different story. If it's custom then basically I would say become a bitch and stick your noise into every little thing. Make sure every thing they do is exactly how you want.
Hey it's your money paying for it, so it should be your word on how it gets done.
By the way I know I don't use you guys's lol names, but it's confusing when their are ....um...what is it now 10 Nates!!!!!!

I could be wrong.
but I forgot to post this up for some reason in the last post http://www.carxccessory.com/flocu-r3025.html
It dosent say weather its steel, stainless or what?
but I have been doing some trolling on Clubrsx and it looks like the RSX guys are usinf 3inch without any problems.... i know they probly have better low end and mid range with I-vtec, but right now im mainly wanting top end power.

^ I know you and wildcard are both Nate's, but could have sworn there was another.
Wow looks like you found a perfect piece, especially since it'll be from the stock header to that. Try emailing them to find out if it's stainless. although who knows how long before they answer.
Mid range shouldn't be a problem especially since almost anyone that gets a tune drops VTEC to around 4500 anyway, and if your racing anywhere below that then you aren't racing.

Version, I got my OEM front lip off ebay from flagstaff honda. 350 painted and shipped, not too bad considering MSRP is $500. Just throwing that out there in case you can't find anything else!
