Discrection from the OP: please DO NOT ask or send me pm's where and how did I obtain the lip. This is a rare jdm half bumper only avaliable from request from your local import shop. It's not that hard to search on the inter-web :rolleyes:

So I have this problem of getting my front to flush with the rest of the car. The super VR4 sides proved too low for my already unique Mugen lip and sadly I had to find another suitable front end. Many advised me to go jdm front but that's just blending in with the masses. So I went to my local import shop and picked up...

1994-1997 Integra Mugen Front "half bumper" (ABS)

It matches with the sides

I'll start trimming the areas around the fog light, the fitting proccess will be the same as the mugen integra lip install for those wanna know. I'll keep you update on the progress during the week.

Looks like a very good project. If I didn't already have a front, I'd try that too. And he's right about how easy it is to find one of these half bumpers.

that side skirt is LOW!

It's not 100% fitment because of the bumper design. I'm planning on getting it molded so the canards fit seamlessly. It's a perfect alternative for a super vr4 lip...
