Rockstar Garage makes a replica Gears lip, which is fairly similar to an AP1 lip, but it's different in its own way. However, fitment seems to be pretty damn spot on with their lip. You can take a look at it here :

As far as replica AP1 lips go, you'll have to stick with eBay. There are a few different vendors who sell them on eBay, but I can not comment on quality between them. Perhaps someone else can help you with that.

I've been wondering the same. That lip up above looks sick. But 300 isn't what I want to spend for a lip. I was looking at this one

I actually bought an eBay lip after cracking my OEM one night on a possum

Don't expect to have OEM perfect fitment with the eBay one since it's a different, more plyable material. If you can live with very slight gaps, most noticeably around where it curves into the fender well, then buy one.

Take my advice when I tell you to buy the OEM weatherstripping for the lip though. Not only makes it look better, but it'll help it appear to fit better.
If I could still buy an OEM lip from Honda, I would in a heartbeat and throw my eBay one away. But I can live with it for now.

I'm thinking about getting a Gears replica from RSG in the near future since they seem to fit a lot better.
