    He wants people to think he got a rear engine Civic and those holes are for scavenging the engine heat out...

    Looks just like some sticker put there just for looks.. Either that or it's his signature version of a bumper protector!

    Even if it's a real hole, I don't think it does anything...

    its to reduce a 'parachute' effect from the rear bumper... because it folds back around to the fron tof the car at the bottom of the mould, it acts like a parachute and creates more wind resistance...

    The car used to have 8 exhaust pipes before he switched back to the regular single pipe.
