I can agree with you. I later changed back, but the original had too much bondo for me and i didnt want to ride without a bumper so i bought the certifit for the time being; for both of my hatches actually

i rocked a certifit bumper for a while and it looked like ****. the fitment on it was horrible and you had to manhandle it to even get it bolted up. i finally ponied up the money for an oem honda.

went for a group dyno the other day..it was just for power runs...





that dood in the orange t-shirt would be me....


this is gonna be LOUD. as i was standing right next to my sideplant aka cutoff....

recommended to turn down the volume first and increase slowly if u intend on viewing...

result


pretty happy with the result as its wats commonly achieved with my setup...so now i know ive got a healthy engine...

could have added about USD10 more to have them check a/f ratio as well....but i totally forgot

I've got 16x7 +35 with 205-40 and about -1 degree in the rear, about -2 in the front and have no rubbing issues at all, even have room to spare all around without rolling the fenders/quarters. All I did was bend up the tabs on the front, not really rolled.

sprayed the whole car,including under the fenders, bumpers, etc. just not the bay yet..

dont have the funds to do everything i want in the bay just yet, so instead of painting it now and re mounting the brake lines and such, decided to wait til march and do the bay when i have a week of vacation.

im not a fan of mis matched colors. its driving me insane already lol.

That is the exact same wheel size and tire size I have on my car and you should be fine. If for some reason you rub just lower it a little more, they will camber in

Kinda cool to see someone take the time and effort to make your hatch as nice as it is How much did your roof moldings and windshield moldings run you if you don't mind me asking.
