I cant believe people actually said TYPE R.
those things are FUGLY.

OEM TYPE R AND OEM SIR are the exact same part number.
AFTERMARKET TYPE R looks like OEM but the flares, shape is slighly off and it looks horrible.

if you dont care for looks that much then go aftermarket.

"TYPE R" which i dont even know why it's called that since its an aftermarket piece of junk that doesn't even replicate a civic lip is a pile of junk.

At least get a 'mugen'.

Sir ftw.

Same lip, OEM CTR and USDM SiR.

Aftermarket, I don't care much for. An used lip which runs between 100 to 120 will be 100 times better than a 60 bucks aftermarket lip.

Superior in every way, and won't crack as easy. Cracking is almost non-issue, and fitment is perfect.
