Re: hep with side skirts

They're HFP side skirts, occasionally you can find them on Ebay, but otherwise they're difficult to get.

Re: hep with side skirts

There are some concerns to buying those eBay lips though.
1. They're made of ABS plastic so if you sideswipe a curb, they will break.
2. They dont include the installation hardware. It will be very hard to find the proper hardware since I've heard that Honda doesn't make those anymore, along with the lip kit. You'll have to think outside the box to put those on properly or simply use superglue or epoxy or something.
3. Fitment. There is no guarantee that these will fit your car perfectly, being replicas and all.

The Aero kit has been discontinued by Honda so getting OEM ones will be really difficult, as MindBomber stated. I got mine from a member on another forum who wanted to change the look of his car after months of looking around. My suggestion is for you is to wait and lurk the for sale section on this site and 7 t h g e n h o n d a . c o m

You could also opt out of the Aero sides and buy the Type A sides. Most cars with them on look good.

Re: hep with side skirts

Pheet's advice is pretty much the way to go....it took me over a year to find actual OEM reverb skirts. You can get them new from some places still, but they cost about $400 a set, which is why I was extremely lucky to find someone selling a pair for $150 used, with all the hardware. The replicas don't include the 3m foam tape you need, as well as self-tapping screws required to put them on. The OEM skirt kits have stick on clips and lower clamps to make them very secure. They also have a rubber lip on the top to help keep the skirts from scratching the side of the car, which to me, is pretty important.

TL;DR:

If you really want that style, you should be patient and wait until someone decides to sell their OEM skirts, otherwise, go with some type-a skirts, as they are inexpensive, and still look decent.

It should be cheaper for you since its set to the Canadian eBay. Change it to .com
Should come down to $150 USD
