GSss10Trunks Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I would like to start of by saying am a huge Del Sol fan and there is no use arguing with me so in other words I bought a 93 Del Sol SI and it is Stock Samba Green and I plan on doing a swap for a B18 with a B16 Tranny (shorter gear ratios make it quicker) And I have recently realized that (in my opinion) that a body kit on a Del Sol Is semi sacrileges so I am looking for a nose lip kit for my car and was wondering weather or not Honda made a stock lip kit that will fit my car if so were can I buy one and if not does any one have any suggestions on a decent one for a good price if so let me know. Bare in mind I am not trying to dis any one with a body kit because I am still open to buying one myself and any help with the lip kit would be greatly appreciated
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Boo for body kits. Welcome to the del sol community. I'd say get a mugen or type r front lip, paint your stock side skirts, and leave the rear bumper alone. If you must get a rear lip, get the mugen styled one.
CleanGSR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Yay, for another del sol owner. I love the Samba Green. I wish mine was Samba, but unfortunately I'm stuck with Milano Red. Welcome to the forums. Oh, and have you considered building the D16 you've already got? You could make that really fast for less money than a B series swap. About the front lips, search ebay for the 92-95 civic front lips. You can find a lot to choose from and they will fit with a minor modifications.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Oh, and have you considered building the D16 you've already got? You could make that really fast for less money than a B series swap. I would know. Trust me.
xalexjx@yahoo.com Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 ask ssr about building you a tranny... also stay away from abs plastic lips..mine had a chunk break off when it was cold out.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I have an ABS plastic lip and it's just fine. Learn to drive.
CleanGSR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 True when they are cold but just be careful. I know a lot of people that run ABS lips and have had no problems with them. I will be getting ABS and just removing it in the winter for extra percaution.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I'll post pics of mine soon for you b16.
CleanGSR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I can't hardly wait (I'm being serious too) Better include motor, fmic pics too.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I will. I'm actually deciding whether or not I should keep the black plastic "grille" inside the bumper in fron tof the FMIC. I kind of want to show it off lol.
CleanGSR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I'd definately take it out and show off the intercooler. Intercoolers look badass filling the front of a del sol.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah, that's what I'm debating on. I think I will though. The exterior looks good right now I think. I painted my corners amber too.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Great IMO. I think it looks just as good as yours, but mine appears to be a little darker. Can't tell really because pictures never really do anything justice.
CleanGSR Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I need to order new corners, so I'll just buy the amber corners off ebay this time. Still haven't fixed the broken one yet since the light still works.
GSss10Trunks Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 What type of civic body style will fit my car EG CG etc. so on and so forth or what ever the bodystyles are called?
blackdelsol Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I would keep it covered. imo there's nothing better than a sleeper.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 What the hell are you talking about ? EG is a JDM 92-95 hatch. EG2 is del sol. Still confused as to what you are talking about.
blackdelsol Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 im confused. are you lost in his post or mine?
Humphries Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 he just asked if there were any bodies that would fit on his car.. car's a damn unibody.. not gonna be able to put any other body besides the one you have.
SolLesHonda Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 His. I have no idea what the hell he is asking.
GSss10Trunks Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 I am compleatly aware that a EG is a 92 hatch and was asking what the name of the Del Sol body style is to posaby make finding a lip kit easy
Humphries Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 actually its an EH.. not an EG.. EH8 or EH6 .. JDM civic is EG or EK.
GSss10Trunks Posted February 10, 2006 Author Posted February 10, 2006 Ok what ever but still bare in mind i'm asking what is the name for the Del Sol body style
