Is the type r entire front bar one piece or is it a stock ek bumper with a lip attatched to the bottom of it. My 96 Ek 1 bumper has little plastic strips that wrap around the sides witch look different to that silver car shown above, which is what i want mine to look like.

96-98 Civic Hatches all have plastic strips on the front and back bumper
96-98 Civic Coupe don't have the plastic strips

If you don't like the plastic strips at the front then replace your front bar with a civic coupe (96-98) front bar.

The reason you don’t see those plastic strips on US cars is because the 96-98 models (coupes, hatches and sedans) didn’t get front bars with the protector strips as standard. In the US the protector strip bumpers are actually sort after because of the JDMness :rolleyes:

Ok Cool, thanks for that i think i will go with the new bars without the plastic strips seeing as it will look more like a type r when the lips are on. :D
