As they say on here.. just my .02 worth. I've seen quite a few for the honda and doing a page to page review between the pics and the ebay shot, well I'm pretty sure I've got it narrowed down to which he picked..at about 60 bucks.

sorry to burst your bubble, but it will not fit. the crossfire bumper comes to a point in the front.the civic front lip is rounded all the way. i know this because i have been there and done that. it did not fit, so i sold it to my friend who had a civic.

Figured I might have to snip a "V" at the lower center area..maybe cut the ends off and use an industrial type adhesive to overlap and flush fit back into the fender well to attach a "semi" hidden fasterner. Possibly foam back the nose area..but it's almost free to play with. And my findings will be "free" back to the forum since it's proprietary info and profit to some. Oh..and the Miata nose is rounded to.. so I see a win - win situation here.
But thanks for the feedback...
Re: New Front Lip For The Crossfire...
i will be making a youtube video to show how snugg the front lip i have fits.i will post the link here.it isbmade of poly urethane, not cheap abs plastic which cracks and brakes always. i still have mine for sale, only$149.99 good luck "searching" ; )

Re: New Front Lip For The Crossfire...
NEWS FLASH.. Your not some genius that has "created" (using your words) a "new front lip" as you claim. If you did create one.. then you should contact me for a tape measure so you wouldn't have to cut an inch off each side and throw a sheetrock screw through it to hold it on. Over six months now you've been trying to pawn yours off.. tell you something? "phat lip" thread has a much cleaner looking spoiler and cheaper if you didn't notice. That lip your trying to pawn off is an 80 dollar item all day long and it just kinda pisses me off someone would come on here.. take all the FREE money saving fixes and turn around and try and fleece the members.
So if "hijacking" your thread saves a member a mistake.. well call me guilty, build you a bridge, and get over it.
When I get my rear diffusers developed.. (cheap abs plastic and fiberglass).. I'll gladly sell you a pair for a bargain price of $350.00, Deal? And no not some chopped down Subaru piece that you have to trim 8" from and put 10 screws in. And these actually will be "created by me".. not some bogus claim to fame.

Re: New Front Lip For The Crossfire...
the lip i created resembles all those cheap ebay lips. if its so easy to do then why is my crossfire the only one with a lip out of the thousands of crossfire out there. you should be getting your $5 lip in yhe mail soon. post up your pics and see how it does not fit. you thouht you found the answer to the new lip, but your way off...this is my last post to you since i have noticed you are just an envious follwer.
Re: New Front Lip For The Crossfire...
Nothing like a little assinine motivation.. Trust me.. you will see a front lip spoiler my car.. Try real hard to real in a sucker for yours because when (not if) it is found it will be common forum knowledge.. I love being challenged. It's a real driving force. Friend of mine works at a used car lot and my son and I could easily make a "father son" outting of measuring front ends.
