There are actually 2 companies that are selling cr replicas. One is frp and the other is polyurethane.
Forcewerks: (same one sold on ebay) https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/985...t-lip-replica/
Group A: (all the way on the bottom of page 3) https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/976...t/page__st__50

looks to me like a good alternative to spending $600 on an unpainted OEM CR lip. Plus if you do it right, you can paint the CR replica yourself and it will look perfect. many videos on YouTube as to how to save tons of money on painting bumpers yourself..

^Same. However, this link is an auction with about four days left on it. Not a 'buy it now'. Who knows what the ending price might be. I probably won't buy it but I'll definitely keep an eye on it.

CR lips and all OEM lips come painted from the factory. but if your car is red, then since no CR's came in Red, yes you'd need to paint it

Looks like someone in China/Taiwan has finally figured it out. These will be all over the place in 6 months for <$250

I think all one would do is create a mold of a CR lip and it would be easy to replicate. Thing is to not violate Honda's patent on the lip the mold will have to be off an inch somewhere so its not true spec, from what im told at least.
