That is one pricy lip kit. I had the same kit on my prelude, and it was $$$. but the construction is extemely good. There's no warp in the fiberglass at all, unlike some kits out there that has that wavy look to it.

I'm guessing kaminari.
My friend has two kits for his prelude both the mugen and kaminari. I personally like the kaminari but he loves his mugen lol.

I know what you all mean about the rear. The Legends rear sit so damn high compared to the rest of the body. Not only on the coupes, but the sedans too.

As others say... if the rear sat as low as the sides.. it would look PERFECT.. no need for kits.

Yea, his is kaminari.

I was thinking about gettin the rear only also, but then it would sit lower just like my cousin. then I would have to get the sides.... but the front wont fit since I have a 94 front end.

Sigh..... oh well. I'm gettin use to my rear ass being higher. I was going to get a lip spoiler but it'll just my the ass look higher.

mmm yea HOTTNESS exsecially the rear lip on a coupe

but yea i wounder how the spoiler would look on a sedan like the GS mmmmmm i guess well just have him make one for an onwer of a sedan

Gride_Cruiser · 11-30-04, 01:30 PM

I would really like to add my 2 cents regarding the rear bumpers of the coupe and the sedan, since I have both. I agree with what everyone is saying here, the rear bumper is really sitting too high!! And also, the trend back then was to have the bumpers slope back down into the a rear lip when seen from the side it looks even higher!! Wats up w/ that?

Thai.95Lcoupe, thanx again for the reply!

13 small photos taken with my phone-camera, so quality is bad.
Pictures taken at my cousins house.

The caliper paint isn't from the cheap spray cans. It's the higher quality types in a small can where you have to brush it on. It mixes with a hardener and the finish is very very hard and super glossy finish. I also got a gold set, so I think it'll look really nice on my black car, but we'll see.

EDIT: 7.5", not 9.0" as I typed before.
The rims are 19 X 7.5", 42+mm offset. Falken wheels.

My little cousin (not the one that owns the Legend) holding rims:

Look inside.. he's rolled up in the rim:

My money on the rim to show how big the lip is... and also blang blang:

The falken wheels look really nice on the car with gold calipers.

hey volk, where in duluth do you live?

A-P Legend · 02-18-05, 05:04 AM

What rear lip/spoiler is that!??? SO CLEAN!!! My friend just put a similar style rear spoiler on his 2003 Mazda 6, im jelous! What is it, where did you get it, how much was it???? GREAT LOOKING COUPE

Volk Racing · 02-18-05, 05:41 AM

It's a pretty mid/highly modified TRD Altezza spoiler.

It doesn't fit, but me and my cousin "made" it fit. Alot of material had to be removed and shaped so that it'll fit. It's a real tight fit, and after that, we primed, base coat, and clearcoated.

It's about $135 shipped. And should be for the people who can do body work to do this, because the spoiler is hollow. If you take off too much material... then it'll just crack, or no more spoler left under and expose a fat hole.

spoiler looks good but looks like it should almost be mounted a little further back. Car looks good though

You're right.. it does look like it needed to be mounted further back. I forgot why it was where it's at. Maybe because the spoiler is more curved than the Legend's trunk, so we mounted the part where it's most protrudant to be flush.
