Best OEM Kit Price

Because of Hondawerx switching to a new parts supplier, the best price I could get from them was about 770-780 shipped. I searched around the net for a bit and came across this company that sells genuine Honda accessories, including the OEM kit with free shipping. I am going to buy an OEM kit from them for 747.50 shipped.

Do you not like the after market ones? It's just me but that is the same price you are going to spend on another brand or style. do you really want to drive a car that looks just like someones mom's car. But to answer your question that is the best I've seen it too.

I like the OEM kit because its not too flashy and goes with the car. Plus as a factory option it comes on the car already painted. I could'nt resist it.

I agree... i think the OEM kit looks good while not being too flashy. A lot of aftermarket kits are big and bulky.

If you don't like full kits, there are other lip kit options. RS front lip/regular side skirts/WW rear, WW G5 kit, Tsunami front lip/ OEM sides and rear. Either one of these look real nice.

Best part about OEM kits is they are already painted with a good factory color match. That's worth quite a bit right there. Lower that sucker a little and throw on maybe a different grill and I guarantee it will turn some heads.

im actually in this same dillema, i ask my girlfriend for her opinions, but i think she's getting tired of me. lol.
anyways, im either gonna go one of three:
1. OEM sides and rear with 'RS' front lip (the painting for this option is cheaper)
2. Kaminari sides with 'RS' front lip (like acekicker, but this requires more time and money because of all the paint)
3. All out OEM (probably best alternative for the price. It's already painted and you dont have to worry about matching colors..all for about the same price that you would pay for an unpainted after market kit.)

does anyone have a general idea as to how much painting four lips is?

The only paint estimate I've had was $150 for a whole front bumper cover.

For my Tsunami roof wing the cost for materials was $40. I'd think you could get a lip painted for $100 or a little less.
