## Description

Enhance the aesthetic and aerodynamic performance of your 1996-1998 Civic Coupe, Hatchback and Sedan, with the GT-Speed Type-R Style PU Front Bumper Lip. Designed specifically for factory bumpers, this front bumper lip offers a seamless fit, ensuring a sleek and sporty appearance. Manufactured by GT-Speed, a trusted name in the auto and hardware industry, this unpainted black bumper lip provides a customizable option to match your vehicle's color scheme. The packaging includes hardware, making installation straightforward and hassle-free. Crafted from high-quality polyurethane (PU), this bumper lip is durable and resistant to wear, promising longevity and sustained performance. Elevate your vehicle's look and function with this expertly designed accessory. Lip Kit Installation: Drilling and professional installation is required. Test fit all items before painting and/or installation. Requires automotive adhesive (3M double side tape are not included) for installation. Lip kit is required to sanded down before applying 3M double-side tape, or it will fall off. Factory bumper needs to be installed on the vehicle, or the lip will not fit. Professional paint job is required. Sand and Primer is required prior painting, or the paint will not stick.

Review: Fitment - Good fitment looks great.
Review: Excellent build quality and perfect fitment. - The lines and contours are just right. Even though the reviews were good, I was still skeptical because often times other peoples expectations are not as high as my own. When installing, do yourself a favor and remove the bumper. It makes for a much better installation. Also, make sure you have some quick clamps to lightly clamp the center section to the bumper so you can properly line up the outside edges. When you buy the lip, buy some inexpensive finishing washers and secure the outside edges with those and some bolts. NOT SELF TAPPING SCREWS. Gently tilt the lip up and away from the center section of the bumper (just enough to attach the double sided tape), then press it back down into place against the tape and use the quick clamps to hold it tight for a little while to get a secure bond. I also use the finishing washers in the center section because I think it looks good and gives added security that my lip isn't going to start flopping at high speed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks great!
*by R***N on June 10, 2025*

Looks great on my '98 Civic Hatchback! Came in a big, long box - plenty big enough for the lip, so it wasn't bent in any way when it arrived. Hardware was included, but no instructions. Simple enough to figure out, though - just screw the lip into your existing bumper. If you want to make sure it's perfectly aligned, use tape to hold it in place before drilling!
