    looks good now get her painted.

    you will need to do some extending I think. Because the JDM rear bumpers are shorter than USDM ones, and the lip that your trying to fit are for JDM rears.

    correct me if Im wrong.

    I'd rather have the knowledge and ability to do it than the money to buy it already done.

    Lookin' good so far! I'm curious what rear you are trying to install as well. Are they the '96-'97 Super VR-4 rear lip pieces... I guess not since you said lip not lips?

    Those are the '96-'97 Super VR-4 sides like in my sig, so I know you are wondering about cutting for the '98+ VR-4/Viento sides. I actually have the '98 VR-4/Viento sides too now, but haven't even tried to install them since I can't afford to get them painted.

    thanks for the heads up..its one complete lip piece..beleive it is super vr4 lip.gonna try to see what i can do..if not, hate to do it but might sell to get cyber 1 rear lip..looks pretty clean..nothing to extravagant..as far as cutting, yea..top of sideskirts had to be cut and tabs on back..and it seemed like 1 inch short and wouldnt go in even hitting wheel wheel...so a bit had to be cut off the rear..gonna fiberglass it.
