    Modding Accord Lip

    Any brainstormer out there wanna give their opinions on how they would go about this

    94 Accord lip.








    Im gonna fiber the lip first and reinforce it better but how would you go about molding it to your stock bumper?

    Use a heat gun. THe plastic is very bendable once its heated, from there you can shape it anyway you need to. Thats how i got my integra lip to fit my 8g, and i need to get pics of that up so i can show you..

    I am assuming that lip is made out of ABS plastic. The material can bend and it looks like you won't have to bend it that much to fit. It looks like minor work to have it fit....but it looks like it will. Looks pretty good

    werd, pics would help me a whole lot. i wanna put the lip on the front, my sideskirts and i need a rear bumper. The kits are hot but the front bumper is too agressive for me plus i wanna keep my stock fogs cuz the HIDs.

    My friend from work gave it to me free, he just bought it and he had cracked it and bought a new one. Im just gonna fix and fiber the whole lip and mod it on. Its from a 94-95 Honda Accord 2dr. He paid 175 for it brand new. I will call him now and see if he know where to get it cheaper.

    I have a 94 Honda Accord LX, it has the following mods:

    AEM short ram intake
    MSD ignition wires
    KYB GR-2 shocks/struts
    Ractive carbon wrapped muffler
    2.25 inch piping
    Clear lenses all but rear (legal color bulbs)
    (sold)17 inch Panther 220 rims
    (sold)Falken Ziex rubber
    6-1/2 inch Pioneer speakers in rear deck
    Dynamat coated rear deck
    JVC CD/MP3 head unit
    Sylvania cool blue low beams
    Strut bar

    No body mods besides the painted rear lip and the type-r grill

    For a non-VTEC 2.2 liter, it moves pretty good, but the best part is handling and grip, with just the KYB's and the wheel tire combo, it's a new world of "stick to the pavement".

    its been said before...but fiberglass won't stick well to ABS, you'll need some sort of mechanical interlocking for it to work and stay for a long time.

    Also we have this thing at my job, but apparently you can bond plastics just like weld metals, you need this plastic fill material but it will bond plastics that are broken/cracked...its used at work to bond Polypropylene parts together, I don't see why it wouldn't work with ABS, although I have no idea if this tool is openly available anywhere

    They have flexible bumper repair kits - bondo makes one that has a flexible two-part epoxy - its a bit tricky to work with to fill large holes, though, as it sticks to everything.

    What the hell does this have to do with my post? Dont thread jack unless you know what you are talking about and is relavant to the topic.

    P.S. I did the lip already. Epoxy, Fiber, Primer, Sand and Wet sand and it looks like new. All i gotta do now is buy a pint of black paint and spray it, Will take pics and post as soon as i get on the computer in the garage.
