    With the Type R style lips you gotta get them for a 99-00 EK hatch and they fit perfect. Pret-Sol and a few others on Honda-Tech are running them and he suggested to me this year lip :eek:hsnap:

    EG front lips can be fitted but are not as easy as EK lips.. EG lips have a small piece that goes into the area where the grill is, EK lips don't have it, they fit flush in front..

    A Type R lip for the EK is plug and play deal on the sol.. we had to fab some mounts near the center so it wouldn't be all wobbly but it came out great.. from side to side it fits perfectly..

    The link to the team delsol website does'nt seem to work anymore.
    Does anyone have the Honda part numbers for the EK lip, I have the Honda Parts Catalogue but want to be sure I order the correct part.

    i just bought a ek (96-98) type r lip and it didn't fit very well on the sol. it was too long into the wheel well, about and inch or so... i exchanged it for an eg 4dr. lip and that fit alot better except for these little bends around the curve of the bumper which i trimmed out and i made some mounts to pull it in because it left a tiny gap. but to my surprise the eg fit a hell of alot better than the ek..??? weird ..but oh well it kind of works so far.

    Yes, if it was designed for a civic 99-00 bumper, it will fit a del Sol bumper also..

    I got mine only this week direct from Honda, the part number shown in the Team Del Sol is correct, but I'm goiong to take my bumper off to fit it.
    I think it will be easier to drill the holes
