got my OEM front lip
i know you guys have prolly seen this same exact thing 100 times already, but im posting mine anyways.
first i had to get it home. i went and got it on my lunch break and when i got back to work i realized i had to bring it with me inside. my coworkers looked at me funny
then i installed it around 11:30pm. suprisingly, the mosquitos seemed to have gone back into whatever hell hole they came from and i managed to install it in the dark with only a flashlight to guide me
the next morning i pulled into work and had to take a gander and make sure it looked good
this is only the beginning people. i only bought this car like 2.5 months ago, so the mods will be rolling in slowly but surely. one thing that suprised me was lack of double sided tape. i used to help the "accessory tech" install stuff like this all day back at the honda dealership i worked for and pretty much every car except this one uses double sided tape and the nuts and bolts.
next on the list is to lower it, then wheels. but first i need a wideband for my prelude so my goal is to have it lowered by the end of the year (just to keep it reasonable lol)
thanks for looking

AP2 lips come with tape. Didn't know AP1 lips didn't come with tape.
When I reinstalled my AP2 lip, I bought 3m double sided tape from Autozone. Same stuff and super strong. I tried reinstalling the lip w/o tape and it just wasn't very stable.
Looks good!
