SiR frontend ?'s

I want a different front bumper, something that sits a little lower, and looks a little better. I realy like the SiR front bumper and I would probally put a lip on it, but I can't seem to find a lip for it anywhere. Also I'm not sure about fitment, if I found just a bumper( which is another problome I'm having) does it just bolt up and line up? Also where can I purchase the bumper, I am also interested in the complete frontend, actually all i want it the bumper and headlights, but whatever. How much do these usually run? I have a 89 hatch, my friend has a 88 crx, he was looking for te crx siR bumper, anyone?

You cant just buy the bumper, it wont line up. You pretty much gotta get the whole front end conversion. Its actually not too expensive. If I ever get in a lil fender bender, Im gonna replace the front end with an SiR front end

I thought the bumper went on fine - it's autonomous of the filler panel, bonnet, radiator support and lights. The issue is more that you cant use the headlights/bonnet by itself as they dont match domestic Civics - you have to go the whole lot.

No it doesn't. The SiR front bumper is more curved than the USDM fronts that are more flat in the front. Trust me, I know a guy who has it and its not fine.
It will fit ON, but it doesn't look right because the "lip" from the bumper thats supposed to be under the headlight filler peice curves out past the USDM filler peice.

Its advised to get the whole front end.. You somewhat get the same effect, but it kinda looks like shit without the headlights and filler peice.

J's racing make a front lip for the SiR bumper.. If you can find someone who can get it for you expect to wait like 2 months, and then pay out the ASS once you finally get it.

How hard would it be to install a whole front clip? Is there alot of welding involved or anything like that?

Should bolt up but you do need the radiator support setup for the bonnet to latch shut.

SiZ - the bumper bolts up to Aussie GLs with no issues, I thiought the noses on them were the same as your 4Gs

No man. A handfull of bolts or so. Its just a hood, headlights, rad supports, filler piece and front bumper. Just a wrench.

Setanta - I dunno what an Aussie GL is , but I know that the SiR front bumper looks fawk on the USDM fronts.

Not toooooo bad.. Its like an inch or so.. Maybe a little more. It definatley looks funny, because it doesn't line up.. It just makes it look like you got in an accident or something.

You can't just beat the shit out of it, the plastic has a different curve.
