8G: 94-95 Accord Front Lip & Rear Lip install

[G-spot]

Does your Home Depot lip look ghey and want a different front lip for the same price? Then read on my friend, read on.....
How to: Install OEM 94-95 Accord Lip (CD5) on an 8Ga & 8Gb bumper


The CD5 lip came in two sizes (well 3 if you include the 96-97 models): medium & large. I tried both of them and fits just fine (that's what she said).
Medium lip:

Large lip:

To determine the height, use a small measuring tool. Medium is 2 1/2 inches high and the large is about 4 inches high.

Here's what you need:

- Front bumper from a USDM 8G (1999-2001), 8GB coming soon
- some sort of cutting tool (Dremel, power cutter, heavy duty scissors)- double sided tape
- about 16 10mm 2 inch bolts /w washers
- 10 mm ratchet

EDIT: this lip can be applied to 8Gb bumper as well (2002-2003)

[Corey2kG]

Fixed lol

[E_Emerson88]

why does it say rear lip in title?

[Exhaust power]

he was so pose to show a rear lip with jdm bumper i think.

[Corey2kG]

Pics or fail lol

[Predat-R]

hey lip master, where's the pics of the rear

[00galantguy]

Im sure he'll have em in due time

My camera's broke that's why I haven't done much but the fitment is pretty good....

You may need 2 sets of those lip to get the usdm bumper to fit. One for the curves and the other is for extending the sides. As for the jdm specs it takes only 1 set to fit. I know without pics this means little to you guys but I'll buy another camera soon.

[Corey2kG]

Well I'm sure it will look awesome. N would be great for those that can't afford a JDM bumper n extensions.

Sorry for the delay but here are the pics....

These are from...you guessed it, from a CD5 Accord :D

Sorry for the not-so descripted pic but if I didn't have a rear valence & lip this would of looked a lot better. As you can see, it needs to be slightly extended (for jdm specs), usdm a little longer. I tested this lip on a 7G bumper and found out it needs to be trimmed down slightly but overall looked good. Now if I could only get the guy to stop by and test fit it that would be golden. **cough**Warren**cough**

There's another piece not included in these pics, a middle piece that completes the whole lip. The other part is the tail pipe section needs to be trimmed to fit the exhaust. That's so far what's going on right now. I really need to have a local 7G and a usdm 8G test car to get finish this project. Without that, it's just speculation. It costs me $8 for the whole thing this is not the kind of project to be overlooked. Thanks for reading :)

[Predat-R]

what about warren isn't he local

[E_Emerson88]

not feeling the rear with that for the 8G

[Da_Prodigy]

I'm not feeling the rear lip either.

[mrg7243]

Pete i gotta question, i just put one on, and it came out half and inch short on each side. where did i go wrong? It looks exactly like the lip you posted

Did you follow this procedure?

But then again....

I got mine off from a 92 i am going to try to put it on, it looks very similar.

They are only available from 1994-95 bumpers.
I've seen 90-93 models at the junkyard the bumper itself is few inches shorter. They might work for Mirages but our bumpers are just too large for it.

[mrg7243]

yeah i just realized that, thats my issue. sorry for the dumb question. Back to the yard sunday i go

[mrg7243]

Just picked up a 92 prelude lip. Looks very similar to these, and it fits!!!!!! Trimming is a bit different but i kept all the oem honda mounting holes. The edge needs to be trimmed about .75 inches so its a very close fit. So us 8g guys can use the lip too,

Any updates on the rear g-spot?

[G-spot]

rear doesn't fit so no worries
