seibon cf lip

quick question about the seibon cf lip. i'm planning to replace my oem lip with the seibon but was wondering if anyone knew if it came pre drilled with the holes ready for the install? painting my fog light housings black today and i think th cf lip will look really well.

I noticed at the track event your lip ate into your fog covers. Its common and its almost impossible to eliminate dude.

thanks for tips guys. so i'm guessing i'm going to go with the mugen style lip off hondafittuner. com. it's gonna look super fresh once it on there. once again i appreciate all the input.

I personally like the abs dynamics mugen style lip better. The seibon and hondafittuner lips make the car look like it has a under bite.

that look pretty fresh it look like the lip that mx6gt89 has on his fit. i dont like how it comes up so high on the sides it look good when its a painted lip but cf might not look that clean. i'm still going for the mugen style.

If you get the ABS ones, it's an easy fix. Dremel with a drum sander and remove as much as you need until it doesn't touch.

I dremeled mine a little. It works fine, just keep the hot plastic off the visible side of the lip. It could warp it.
I just wanted it on. So I put it on. I also made a bracket for the bottom so it wouldnt lift up.
