imported_crXtasy

hi, wondering if someone could help me out. Im looking for the dimensions of the civic (coupe/hatch) front bumper

Or, if someone had a pic (from a manual or something) that'd be even better.

Looking to custom mount a 5th gen front lip onto my crx front bumper. Anyone ever done something of the sort?

The dimensions i would be looking for would just simplly be the length and the width on either side,

imported_gatherer

thats going to be tons of customizing involved in that

as long as the dimensions are larger then the crx's front it shouldnt be a problem.

i could easily cut it into 3 sections and then re fiberglass them back together to fit. its just i dont want it to be smaller,

its been done, some dude was sellin a crx with a 92-95 bumper on it...IMHO it looks like ***, I seen it on a hatch in windsor and I almost puked

square car + round bumper = a HUGE no no

He wants the lip not the whole bumper guys.

I've seen the lip thing done. Looked good but don't know any details.

meh.. just use 4 self tapping screws and drill it in any way it will go. who cares if it doesnt fit right, you can have the bragging rights of it all!!

PM Dented DX..

I sold him a 92/95 lip for his Rex..

He painted it flat black..

Showed me it installed in a couple weeks..

I swear it looks stock..

nice, im gunna go for it.

ive got an integra lip on there now, but i wanna go for something aftermarket, and well, they barely exist for the crx, besides 300+ dollar USD lips from japan.

ill show some pics soon as im done

IT will probably will be a lot of work. I would buy a lip that fit the car..

imported_94EG6HB

The 92/95 lip isn't alot of work apparently..

imported_crXtasy

obvioussly if i could buy a lip for the car i would.

but apparently the only lips availablefor the crx are either for the JDM front end, or there is a J's Racing lip that fits USDM but is pretty ugly(IMO), fiberglass and very expensive.

ill post some pics when im done.. i jsut picked up the lip tonight.

it looks to be the correct size, but the curvature is quite a bit off.

so hopefully i can just heat it up, and remold it to the proper shape, but at least i wont have to do much trimming.

Cynikal.Mindset

all u need is a heat gun and some self tappin screws

imported_crXtasy

quick pic of the lip insatlled

imported_crXtasy

it was quite the pain the in ***. i ended up cutting it in the middle then fiberglassing it bback, and having to put a bunch of slits on the under side to allow it to straighten out. The civic front bumpers are much more curved.



i think it looks ok. what do you guys think?

The G2 Racer

Doesn't look bad at all. Looks mounted a bit to high imo.

Got any stright on shots?

imported_djxquizit

looks like crap hehehe jk actually not too bad but u would have had alil more success if it was a 91 bumer its perfect for the 92 style lips
