Lol another thread? shuldve kept it to one thread man. Ek9 front bumper? dont bother.. it will cost you alot. better off buying ej8 front bumper or order an after market one made by taiwan.

look around n get lucky on the for sale section.

or if you got a friend thats a panel beater they can order it in for you.. aftermarket usually cost 1/4 of the price to a OEM honda one. and look good when all painted and fitted

If you want aftermarket panels try Race Nation (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?63370-RaceNation-BRAND-NEW-AFTERMARKET-PANEL-FOR-ALL-CIVIC-INTEGRA-PRELUDE-ACCORD-amp-MORE). I have bought exhaust parts from these guys previously and their prices/service is fantastic.

The panels they have come in matte black and will need to be resprayed, but according to their testimony they are of very good fitment.


Worth a try :)


PS: Some people think poorly of Taiwan's manufacturing abilities but they actually produce a large amount of our better known branded parts and loads of people in Japan used to use generic/no-name Taiwanese parts in their builds, with good results.

yeah full facelift would set you back around 1K+ mark depending on oem or generic parts and how lucky you are.

Yes I remember you mate. Pity you couldn't find an SiR but they seem to be getting harder to find and the prices aren't dropping either.

But there's still a lot to be said for a nicely modded Civic so make yourself a worklog :)

given the price of facelift civics these days, not worth goin this way, where as teggys its more seen as a good conversion, jdm front end
