Nice paint job on it. I am not a lip guy, I think they are a joke and make everything look ridiculous, even a small modest one, however, I really do think this accents your xB really well. I think it looks really good. I'm in for a day time side shot of it kneeled down. That will give you a good idea too.

Looks good, can you get some shots of the lip near the wheel arch? What kind of lip is that?

Thanks guys for the opinions! I appreciate it.

Crminaltc: the c4 is my fathers. We got it a few years back and it wasn't in running order. It is not running and in okay shape. I believe he is looking to sell it soon as for it just barely passed smog and he has to many other projects going on. I don't have picture of it currently but I can get some next time I head over there.

Eman44: it's actually a civic mugen lip that I fabricated to fit our cars!

Here are some side pictures as requested

What year Civic? A few years back when I had my 09 xB, I looked at some Civic lips but the ends were too short. Did you just buy two lips and cut them to length? Very curious because I love the way that looks!

Yes it's two lips cut put into one. You bust get two lips and fabricate it to fit our cars. It's 99-00 civic lip. You essentially could do any lip

Looking pretty good. But I think a color matched screw cap (for those top screws on the lip) would make it look flawless.

Hell, yes, it looks pretty good!
Can you please post close-up pics of transition between horizontal top of Mugen lip onto lower vent rib?

Other than the screws up top, the rest is 3M 2x-taped or more screws upward under the skirt?

I haven't seen anyone try this on an 08-10 yet.
i cant imagine it will fit too much differently. Ive seen people use WRX v-Limeted lips aswell.
