Did you just use the oem platic screw things that were already there?

There is alot of roadkill where I live and I am afraid that if its night or someone is in front of me I wont have time to switch lanes. And since Accords sit so low already, it will rip the lip off which will probably end up scratching the side of the car.....
it comes with screws, and i used about half of the stock ones(all the ones that lined up). then i used other means to mount the rest.

i have eibach springs so its lowered like 1.7inches. and the front lip is pretty low now. I can barely fit my shoe under it.

I would paint it. It stick our like a sore thumb because your car looks so stock. If you stick with the two-tone, I'd go all the way around like blackknights silver on black lips and side skirts.

You won't crack a urethane one for sure. The bumper would probably give before the lip.

No problemo. I know from experience, like that time I hit that manhole cover. The lip was untouched, but the bumper and everything else was demolished. I still have it unpainted in my garage with the mounting holes already drilled. Maybe I should sell it....
