It will fit... For the ef8/9 swap you don't need new guards.. All you need is a bonnet, headlight,t bar, bumper and indicators...the only difference in the guards is the clips the Parker's screw into.. You can buy those clips from honda direct

Clearance wise there won't be heaps of room, but you will clear the engine.. If you want a bit more room you can cut a little bit of the webbing on the underside of the bonnet... I didn't and I haven't had issues
