I don't think it was ever marketed as an option, it's listed as an OEM accessory. Now that it and the Integra have been discontinued, it has become wildly popular amongst the 98-01 G3 crowd and it's pretty hard to find. Only a few Acura dealers still have any of these parts. Some dealers have even sold their remaining stock to people who are now selling them on eBay and message forums like this one. And, for what it's worth, the kit is not for the 94-97 Integra's, only for the 98-01 2-door coupes.
I have the kit, purchased the 5 pieces from 3 different sellers. Only two were in my color, so I had to have them painted to match. My front lip is looking good, but the rubber strip on my rear valances has relaxed or moved in some way since painting and I can now see the original Vogue Silver peeking through. I have ordered a replacement set of the rears in my color and will replace, then sell the rears currently on my car.
If you can't tell, I really like this body kit... it's very subtle.
...bad pic to follow...

After re-reading your post, I think I didn't really adderss your question.
It was not available as an option. It was not part of any trim level in the Integra line (RS, LS, GS, GSR, Type-R). Also, it didn't include the Type-R front lip, so those of us without Type-R's had to buy the lip and the sides skirts and the rear valances.
It was not offered as a complete kit. The sides are one part number, the rears another, and the front lip is a seperate part number as well.
There are plenty of Genuine Acura Accessories that don't make it onto most cars. I like buying these accessories to add to my car... I finally have keyless entry after two years without it, and added the OEM foglight kit recently.

I'll have some rear valances for sale in the near future... originally Vogue Silver, painted Cayenne Red. I'm not happy with the paint job, found rears in my color, going to swap them out soon.
