Does anyone know how wide a civic or accord front bumper is?? I was thinking of buying a black widow, R34, or a few other options then cutting the top of the bumper off, then taking my celica front bumper and cutting it in half and using my top half and the bottom half of the civic bumper for a different look.. It would take some time but would this work????
I just dont care for any of the bumpers that are out there....Looking for something different! J- This post has been edited by Tru_Pol: Aug 18, 2004 - 3:19 PM |

I'm not sure...you might go to your local import shop(if you have one) and see if they have some kits that you could look at, to try to find something that will work for you.

Turboinduction bought the kit; there was a post about it a couple months ago.. I dont think it's come in and been fitted yet; so he didn't want to give the web address out yet (as there are no pictures of fitment, etc) so basically, he didn't want a bunch of people to get scammed if he did...
Edit: I just checked the link Turbo gave me- and the kits are gone from the list!!!! This confuses me, as Turbo called them to be sure it was the real deal; and bought it! I've sent him a PM on the matter. This post has been edited by shid: Aug 18, 2004 - 4:17 PM |

Your closest fit from another car width wise will be the eclipse, or the talon. Both of those cars have a wide array of kits avab. |

It wont matter what front bumper u get, whether if its for the civic, accord or eclipse or whatever. If u look at those cars, the bumper extends out into the fender and wraps around, but our cars dont. Whatever u get, ur gonna have to cut and extend the bumper.

Sorry, guys for the mistake. This is why i kept the link back from everyone... to ensure it was the real deal. It wasn't... mistake made from the making company. They sent bodykits.com the codes from the 94-99 Celica but it was suppose to be from a Camry. |

if i do recall a member from this site used a integra front lip and used it on his celica. so if the front lips fit then they width of the cars shouldnt be that different.

I am for custom work and all, but a civic front end on our car? Isnt that like putting Rosie O'Donnell's face on Pamela Anderson's body?
