front lip?

ok i was wondering around the board today and see this post about front lips for the 3rd gens and such, now im wondering is there a front lip for the 1st gen?

if so does anyone have a pic to share?if it dont exist do you think it would be easy to fab one up from one at a junk yard?

I've never seen a front lip sold for the pro, but i made one for my front bumper http://www.protegeclub.com/forum/sho...threadid=21775
I'm gonna get some Honda Civic side skirts and cut them to fit the pro also. I'm not too sure what i'm gonna do about the rear bumper though any one have any suggestions?

I've never seen a front lip sold for the pro, but i made one for my frontbumper. It took probably around 20 Hours in all to get it how you see it. I still have to prime it, and sand it down again before i can paint it.

u could get a rear bumper from a 91 or so accord or a 92-95 civic and mold it to the rear bumper that's what i'm doing on my car i used to have a merc tracer and i was gonna do the same thing but i got rid of it and got the pro so i'm planning on doing that.

but i don't think it will be long enough from the back of the bumper to the wheel well.

Not Working

Have you made a picture book or whatever it's called yet? Maybe called an image book (don't remember), but make one of those, then post the link to the cover page or if you allready have the pictures uploaded you can link to them and show the pics in your thread, just remember to delete the (part in Italics)
www.imagestation.com/blah.blah.jpg.orig.jpg . Any questions?

So there you go semtex, the 48 bucks seems like a steal to me, if id have known that a civic lip would fit up that easily thats what i would have done, well thats what i planned on doing originally.

Hey 1ofdfew323, Did it come off of a civic? 'cus theres quite a few good looking lips you can get for them, and with the bigger hole in the pro front bumper i think it'll look more aggresive.
