urs isnt that bad dude
its white oready
so i'd leave it as is
..
taking it off, means ull haf to fork out time n money to fill in the bumper n re paint it...

i agree wiht mr wills.. might cost more fillin it up and re paint it.. did u get it cutom fitted on or soemthing.. cause u can get them buddy club style rear bar wihtout it.. unless u got the add on rear lip bit.

u can get the OEM ones from the facelift EK models without the dam moulds.

if u want to remove the plastic trim, on the inside of the rear bar there r clips that u need to undo or push out..havnt tried it myself. but if your going to fill up the hole and paint it, it wil probably be cheaper to source another rear bar without the moulds. also if the gaps r filled in, if u ever knock or bend ur bumper the filler can crack.

if you're going to go through all that trouble, just get a 99-00 ek rear bar..

comes with no moulds, and get that sprayed..

instead of going through the trouble of removing it - covering the holes - and spray.. :thumbsup:

looks like u got a front bodykit goin on so no moulds there... so if ur decide to go back with no moulds go for the ej8 civic coupe front bar..

moulds rocks! :p

yeah im with dupac..if u gona go thru the hassle might as well remove it and get a new one...but anyways to removie it u either can take the bumper off and do it or juz move the clips frm under the bumper behind the guards and move it...its hell easy thats y people who loose em easily steal others like how mine got stolen!!!
