Possible Front Lip Mods

Ok so after reading a thread awhile ago on modding a 91 Integra front lip to fit the OZ I started looking for other front lips that look good that might fit. There are a couple dozen made for the Honda Civic but as of yet i havent been able to get my hands on one to see if it would fit. There are a ton on ebay from anout 60-100$ shipped that would look awesome if you could get them to fit. However upon trying to get some sizes to see if i could make it fit i actually had one seller tell me " We dont do measurements" Im not kidding thats what he actually said. The ebay seller btw was "baysonr" Id avoid him if you look to buy a lip. So does anyone think they can find the measurements from some of the lips available for the late 90's Honda Civic b/c there are some NICE looking lips out there for that one.

You can pretty much make anything fit if you have $$$. its always hard to find a lip thats gonna be a perfect fit right out the bat. In my mirage i have a lip i made out of a MX-3 fron lip and it was pretty cool... noone else had it, and ppl always gave me compliments.
Good luck on the search.

He said they don't do measurements because that "company" is probably an AVS (Added Value Seller)/3rd party selling the manufacturers parts. He does nothing but list parts for sell; common practice on Ebay...

woulda been nice if he had politely explained that instead of saying "we dont do measurements" so im still thinking ill try and make some different lip fit im just not sure how to do it. Maybe some fiberglassing work. If the lip is an ABS plastic or something how might i go about working with it ? What would i use ?

Thats nice^^^ I am sure you can make a civic lip fit if you cut the middle and fiberglass it back together. The hard part would be making sure it was flush around the curves in the bumper.
