Here's another view showing the mufflers and their placement in the rear valence

I've also wiped off some of that dark exhaust film ...

Didn't realize it was a dual setup on each side.

At least you did it right and didn't have them sticking way out.

Yeah, I think you would end up with the same situation with the OEM replica lip, so it should be fine.

Would highly recommend just going with that full kit and selling the Mugen lip.

another member from Ontario :canada:...car looks good and like the way you are thinking about completing the car by adding OEM style lip & side skirt.
also as you car is V6, i will think about add a tranny coller as 98-02 accords are know for bad trannies

Hello got the side skirts and rear lip from BaysonR ...

Just wanted to confirm that the side skirts bolt onto the existing sub door rocker panels. Right ???

Thanks in advance,

Since no one answered ...

Yes, they do, direct bolt-on, BaysonR supplies you with black self tapping screws to secure it.

and I don't think you would have any worries about the rear lip

Actually you do ... the OE replica rear lip exhaust opening are lower (closer to the ground) and more mesial (closer to the middle) compared to the stock 01-02 rear bumper valence. If you've got a custom exhuast muffler tip that tucks neatly into the stock slot, you will have to have it moved down and to the middle.

Hope this helps others in a similar situation :)

The rear lip was not put on very well, but I am doing some custom body work to the car in the spring, so will get it fixed and painted at the same time.

Looking nice! Can you tell me why the rear lip wasn't mounted very well? (I'm planning to get their lip kits all around in the future.)

SSM ftw!

How did you mount up the front lip? I have the same and the sides just wont stay the few MMs up enough to sit in the little groove on the side of the bumper.
