Default Whats the difference in Aspec kit and DC5 kit

sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but is there any difference in the US aspec lip kit and the stock dc5 kit other than the rear lip. They look the same to me but maybe Im wrong.

dc5=chassis code for all RSX's.

are you talking about the kit between the base model and the type-s or are you comparing the US aspec to the type r that the japanese get?

A-Spec LIP Kit is also known as the Acura Optional Lip Kit

A-Spec Spoiler is IDENTICAL to the DC5-R Spoiler

As for the DC5-R Lip Kit, all 4 pieces are different compared to the A-Spec.

The front and the side appear thinner(Can't confirm that though) and have different lines/curves.

Here are the pictures:

JDM Front Lip:


A-Spec/Acura Optional Front Lip:



JDM Sides:


A-Spec/Acura Optional Sides:



JDM Rear:
