Fiji Blue Lip Kit Discontinued?

So finally find a part i like and am ready to drop the money on it and get my front lip...place and order and.....

Thank you for your order. Sorry but unfortunately this part has been discontinued through American Honda. Sorry for any inconvenience that this may cause you.

is it under another name?

Fiji Blue is discontinued for 09+. It was available for 06-08 M.Y

it might be hard to look for painted parts since Honda did drop that color.

I think college hills probably has some fiji blue stuff...I got my habi front lip from them like two months ago and it was discontinued the same time as fiji

Get another color and have it painted fiji blue. Not the most economical choice, but it is doable.

if it's a lip kit for a 06-08 honda civic american honda can not say they refuse to replace it or order it..... for EVERY new car made the dealer HAS to make EVERY part down to the nuts and bolts that includes factory paint for like 10-15 years or something like that time frame.... now if your ordering a 09+ lip then yes american honda can refuse to produce that front lip in FBP

^ Yeah that. What if people with a FBP Si get in an accident? Honda should have HFP parts in stock for the HFP stuff.

and honesly they could be out of stock.. i ordered my rr front hfp lip and the first one came from oregon and didnt fit right so work reorderd one and it also came from oregon.. i wasnt happy with the fitment on that one either so the last replacement they gave me came from cali.. so maybe they are running short on parts but if u want ill check with my parts department to see what they say

college hills i believe is like costco.. they order bulk to sell for those prices.. so they prob bought out the last of honda stock on alot of stuff.. its sad too because the parts guy owns a 94 prelude and parts are still avalible yet an 06-08 front lips it outta stock :-( in that color

key words in bold..... college hills can still order the parts from honda if they feel like it ( which they probably don't) AMERICAN HONDA has to make every part for every color no questions asked.... i 100% guarantee that you walk into any honda dealership and ask i need to replace 06-08 Front Lip (or any part) in FBP (or any color) they will either say sure we have that in stock and it'll be $xxx.xx or sure but we have to order it it'll take around xxx amount of time to get here and it'll be $xxx.xx

Can i call Honda America myself?

yes either call american honda or contact any honda dealer(would be easier) and question are your trying to order a lip for a 06-08 civic or 09+?

08 FBP Coupe. Also, i have called many dealers looking for prices and they still have this listed as a valid part in their databases. I guess they just don't want to put a single order in?
