I think if production went in for a whole oem carbon fiber 4pc lip kit it would sell.

I would buy it! it would be different, and would appeal to those of us who do love the stock body, but want to do something not everyone is doing.

Or just at least a CF front and rear, there are CF side skirts out there.

I would like something like the stock lip. Not a flat POS. Something similar to the TYPE-R, Spoon, or Mugen lips for civic and integras is what were looking for here.

I dont know about that. if you replace the front lip as direct replacement it would look odd compared to the side skirts and rear that are not carbon fibre.

might be too much carbon fibre as well to do the complete lip.

I kinda like the posted pic with just a bottom lip on the factory lip. but that does not help the 2.4 ladies....LOL (that was directed at ProjeKt cause I know him and I tease him quite a bit, he does return some good shots so dont try to defend him, this was a JK...LOL)
