Do you mean the rubber trim piece that goes over the lip?
(cue long line of posts from others saying "don't bother", "better without", "they cause the rust" etc.
)
But to answer the question... They weren't that expensive new from Honda, but annoyingly, the lude part number ones are no longer available
@Thebusofwoe is researching for me which newer Honda's have them at the same (or longer) length so I can get those as an alternative.
I haven't found a source through searches on eBay etc, unfortunately

I think I might have found some?
Embarrassingly I took mine off and cleaned up the arches and found the paint to be flakey but still fairly solid, but when I fitted them back after treating the arches they weren't a perfect fit, it's more for the aesthetics intil I feel that the arches need replacing

It's a 5th gen thing. All of them have rear arch lip protectors.

No rear arch linnings on 5th gens. Just the lip cover rust promoter.

It's a 4g thing as well.
And an Accord/Civic thing.
And a Rover 200/400 thing.

I didn't know that.
The rust on 4th gens must force them off
. I have never noticed a pair on a 4th gen, not that I pay much attention to them. Lings does says that they have them.
