What kind of modifications did you have to make to get the accord lip to fit?

looks better than some cars that have thousands of dollars in them.

Its just like putting on any lip that doesn't belong on it. I took the bumper off and had to drill a few holes in the bumper to line up with the holes on the lip and used nuts and bolts to bring them together, and spots that were too small to bring together by nuts and bolts, I used zip ties (can't see them, they're on the inside). You just have to kind of bent the lip to go flush with the bumper, then either cut, or score and bend back the endcaps (the accord lip is about 5" too long on both sides for an 00 hatch.) The pics really dont do the lip justice, I've got a friend with an 00 SI and our cars were parked side by side, and i actually prefered the look of the 94-95 ex lip to the 99-00 si (CTR) lip. Plus I picked up the ex lip for 10$ =).

You get mass props for only spending $10 on a lip that looks great. I was just curious.

wouldn't you want shorter gearing for auto-x as opposed to long gears....correct me if i'm wrong...and it looks pretty spiffy man...why not get an ex motor instead though?...the y8

Yes shorter gearing is a very nice thing for autoX, but after I get the z6 in I may have my mind totally changed on the t25 5psi setup and decide to just put a jdm d15b lsd tranny and be done with it. Only time will tell.
