Type R replica - 2 Door, lookin mean

NOTE - TYPE R REPLICA LIP NOT MUGEN REPLICA - I made an oops
I don't think very many people roll with this lip on their 2 door civics so I thought I would post mine up and see what you guys think. I think it makes my civic look extremely agressive.

I had this lip for a while but coukdnt use it anymore because i was to low and I didn't want to mess it up anymore. I liked the look for a little while but prefer the hfp lip.

Type R "replica" - Brain fart. I like the mesh look, always have loved the look of it so I decided to keep it. The bumper that's still original was hacked to pieces by the original owner, so the mesh is the only thing that "works" I can't exactly do anything else other then fabricate something completely different to go in its place. I like the fact that my car is getting pretty unique with out hitting on the rice side

It does scrape a little but my car is set at that in-between smash it to pieces or never hit it hight so I'm just careful.

So I was right the entire time ... L o friggn L. I am guilty of leaving out the "replica" but a 2 door does not exist so I thought it was assumed.

As far as the grill that everyone is talking about i don't really like the look but at least it does serve some function as far as protecting the condensor. I had a pretty decent size piece of gravel pop up from a truck in front of me on the fwy right into my condensor and it poked a hole in it causing me to have to get it repaired for a good amt of money so the mesh works for that.

That being said I still don't really like the look so if it was my car I would wrap the inside of it using the DIY in here somewhere so its not seen and still serves a function.

But its not my car and everyone has their own taste.

Well by definition my car isn't rice, everything done to it is functional minus the lip and rear tail lights (No body has any functional aero kit unless there car is race spec'd with a full under tray) Plus everything done to my car is fitted and installed correctly(with a tune). Technically we're all rice because we drive a Japanese domestic with a 4 banger

The mesh inserts aren't chicken wire just so you guys are aware, its tightly woven metal mesh, 3/16" thick welded to a frame with metal tab's, tapped with 1/4"-20 UNC painted gloss black. Chicken wire is like 1/8th - 3/32" openly woven and flimsy. The original plastic inserts/mould where cut out by the previous owner.
