If Becky was still there, it would have been a success, because working with Becky is absolutely a great experience. I knew she was going to resign in advance and that's why I didn't put any more work into it. Oh well, I can still use it for something else since its basically just swap the logo.

Nope no lip made for 1.7 except the OEM aero...this lip had to be customed on. Still working on it actually, there are screws in the front of my bumper rite now...fixin it on Friday. BUT here's a clue:

I went there lookin for a 96-98 CTR lip but it didn't fit cos the 1.7 bumper has a point or "beak" in the middle....

Won't fit without extensive modding. You'd have to cut the lip right down the middle then bondo it or something to make the "beak" in front, as while Civic front bumpers have a nice gentle curve, EL's have a point right in the middle. I was lookin to get the mugen style, i love those little vent things. But my choice was even better, and a lil less modding. Eventually I'll have mine molded on too...pics this weekend, when the urethane has settled, the screws are out, and the side skirts are on...just think to yourself, what other car out there has a "beak" on it and has aftermarket support...come on you all know this...
