Just bought a front lip for MY01.
The instructions seem pretty easy.
1 question- Do you have to jack the car & take off the front tires for this install?
Instructions don't mention this but I thought I read somewhere that it was necessary.

Sorry If this is a dumb question!

thanks....

You don't need to.

I love mine.

I bought mine from Flagstaff Honda on eBay for 350.00 shipped. It doesnt look like they have any listed right now but you could email them.

Search for my post in the southern california forum. i just did a huge price comparison of everyone.

Best price I got was from marino honda in ohio. Joe (SanMarinoCpe) hooked me up. fast shipping and in stock. flagstaff honda was second lowest. they finally have their parts department issues worked out. ask for sean.

A little off-topic, exactly how much (height) of the existing bumper does the lip cover up in the middle portion of the original bumper. Mine has a little bit of curb rash and I am seriously considering the underbody spoiler to cover it up. Thanks!

The spoiler will certainly cover up damage that you got by running into parking stoppers or curbs. If the damage is really high on the stock bumper, then it may not cover it up.

why not just turn the wheel so that you have room to work? you only need to screw in 3 things right?

I did this while my car was on a lift, and I was able to install it pretty easily. Oh yeah, I didn't remove anything either. If you turn the wheelsm you can get to the area in the wheel-well where you need to screw in the two screws.
