OEM. APR lip works best on an Amuse front. Mugen works best on nothing because it's ugly and stupid expensive.

Edit: Whatever you do, don't put an AP1 lip on an AP2 front like the member above did. WTF?!
YO! I recently bought it and that was the previous owner. I hate it as much as you do which is why I'm planning to get a CR lip or oem lip.

EDIT: Don't put me on blast. Making me get frowned upon.
So, take it off? or dont post pics of your car yet.
The ap1 lip isnt going to make you get frowned upon any more then saying "blast" you sound like a jagaloon.


To the op. Apr is best if you want to be different. Ap2 if you want to go the safe route.

wow these comments bring me honda-tech flashbacks, all this haterade going around, if the guy has an ap1 lip on his ap2 well so be it, its his s2k anyway so hell do with it what he chooses and yeah whoever it posted that was flaming him for no reason. personally that lip on that car not my cup of tea, but whos asking me anyway.

as far as lips go oem is your friend, but thats just how i like my things. i have a C/R lip on mine and i love it!

I'm sorry that I love my car, who didn't take pictures when they first got it? I'm sorry that I have a busy schedule. You're probably going to say it only takes 10mins but I doubt it because it's going to leave residue and stuff. In the end I'm just going to suck it up and wait until my CR lip to deal with that hassle. Props to tsukubaSpec

no problem man. and i plan on getting an oem lip too after i lower. and i've read it costs about 100-150 to paint a lip (correct me if i'm wrong), and make sure paint matches, metallic and pearl colors are hard to match because of the flakes in the paint. i'm pretty sure honda already has it painted if you get it from them
