Default S2K Front Lip

Found this front lip on ebay, Not too sure on what i should be paying for this but it looks like a good price? A shot in the dark here though, anyone know if theres a place that sells already painted lips?

I think Si at Hendy performance sells Honda oem painted lips. He's in the traders section. Think they cost about £200 though.

You can double that. The OEM front lips are about £400 but come painted and give the best fit. Much better route rather than buying cheap, needing lots of work to make it fit and then to have it sprayed.
Stick with OEM and give Si a call.

Wish they still did OEM AP1 ones.

Don't want to swap the whole bumper out as I actually prefer the look of the AP1 bumper!

Was closer to 500 when I bought mine from a Si.

Well worth it though.

For what it's worth, my front lip is also a ebay replica made of the same material. The price was good and my body shop did a fantastic job fitting and painting it. I think I was a good 90% happy with the result, for the total amount I spent it was well worth it. Here's some photos of mine after I had it done.

If I bought another s2k I would probably get a oem one next time, only because something looks missing without the gasket that the oem one comes with. Ironically I didn't like the look of the gasket before but now my opinions changed.

What about these looks like it might fit more securely but probably still needs work to get a proper fit and of course spraying to match, although on the right car would look ok in black

Fancy one too. Do they come in all colours, i.e. Monza Red :-)

Are they easy to fit. I've seen them on a couple of S2000. So they have a gasket in-between the original bumper and lip.
