I have a 88 civic dx. and i have the gay greyish primer bumpers. What did you guys do with your bumpers, did you paint them black or what. my car is white. Or should i buy new bumpers. Also will the 90-91 bumpers with the longer turn signals in it fit on my car. Thanks guys/

you should paint them black, and while your at it, re-paint the side trim/sidemoulding and everything under it black, panda style!

IMO, put the 90-91 front bumper it has those fake intake ducts and it looks badass. You could cut and modify them to make a ram-air effect kinda thing. Im trying to find one now, anyone wanna sell theres to me?! :iceslolan

I cut one of "those fake intake ducts" on my car for my CAI and it does have ram air intake effect, but like stated in a different post - acceleration lags just a tad but hardly any

only CRX's have those, he has a civic.
IMO, the black bumpers look hot. I like blacked out though. I traded my red DX center piece for my brother's STD black center piece..although i do have red bumpers :/
88/89 bumpers look ALOT better than 90-91 bumpers, atleast on the civic. I think the "wide mouth" style of 90-91 looks retarded. The 88-89 style looks more "late 80s import" and matches the style of the body better than the 90-91. FYI, i have a 91 :(
I'd almost kill for an 88-89 Si hatch in good condition.

ya, the 88-89 civic bumpers looksed way better than the 90-91, and black is definitly the way to go, the contrast looks good :iceslolan ......oh and by the way, they didn't have Si hatchs in 88.....
