Fit is bad IIRC - a search will reveal lots of posts on front lips from ebay...

I have that lip and the fitting is 'ok' as long as you're prepared to spend some time with a hot air gun. That said, i had mine blended into the bumper so any fitment issues are well hidden. If you want OEM look then you really need to go OEM.

You can probably get it direct from Honda but it's not 'cheap' but bearing in mind that a front end respray is probably £200 ... 300+ for the lip supplied painted isn't *that* bad.
