    What year accord lips are you guys looking for?? The two yards I go out to have probably 4-500 cars. Im sure there are quite a bit out there. If its just a piece of plastic they usually tell me "just take it" bc my work does alot of business with them and Im there once a week haha.

    As for the intake with the water that was discussed earlier, don't run it in bad weather with no fender liner. In this crazy rain we've been having, I pulled in a lot of water, and it killed the engine when I was going up the mountains to san diego. I have a piece of my fender liner missing, and my filter has been exposed for a long time, but with the rain I've been meaning to pull it back into the engine bay. Well yesterday I was driving in crazy weather, and the motor bogged down, lost way too much power. As in it couldn't hold cruise control at 70, on a flat road, without dropping into third. I knew it was the intake, so I pulled over, took it off, and there was a puddle of water sitting right there at the throttle body in the manifold. So who knows how much got into the rngine, but I got a pic of what happened I'll get it up here eventually. I pulled the intake into the engine bay, dried everything off, kept driving, and the problem went away. And this was not even going through puddles, just water splashing on the filter. So yeah to summarize... I know from experience to not leave an exposed filter in rain. So these motors are in fact strong enough to suck water in. If oyu have a liner, I'm sure it would be fine, but definitely close up that hole.

    I know wtf is with it it hasn't stopped in forever... I like it though, except for the fact that I've put 1200 miles on my car since the 10th, and everyone is crazy in the rain.

    why didnt you get them. im not too big of a fan but they would look good on yer car for sure.

    I painted them with krylon from micheal's. same thing i use for my fogs. i like the color more than the tamiya clear orange cuz its still shiny like my headlights. i have like three sets of corners. white, amber, and stock..lol

    I don't like it Exdream, but what ever floats your boat. I would rather have no lip then that rear ebay lip and ebay side skirts.

    Too ricy for my taste, stickers, visors, useless tow hooks, over kill if anything just being blunt. You get bored of it eventually, and yes from personal experience.

    I'll have you know that each of my visors gives me 10 extra horsepowers so thats 50 hp right there the two hooks give me an extra 50 and the stickers are 100 hp AT LEAST. bro.. we are like at 445hp so idk what you are talking about.

    oh and ex dream i saw a buddy of mine cut a hole in his rear lip to fit his rear tow hook. it actually looked really good. you should try it out.

    @CorollaGT i think your car looks great! I mean amazingly nice. The only thing I don't really like about it is the rear visor/spoiler/lip look combo. I think they all clash together when the rest of the car looks simple and unique. I think if you lost the spoiler it would look much much better. Just my .02 but your car does look great!
