Default Raybrig Rear License Plate Garnish ? Plate Holder / Trim for EK?!? - PICS INSIDE -

I have a Rear License Plate Garnish made by what seems to be Raybrig. Does anyone know anything about these??

I know Raybrig makes the Fogs, Light bulbs, and other lighting products.

This is for a 96-00 Civic and fits on Hatches and Trunk Lids. It is red in color, and has a sort of reflector look to it, looks similair to the rear tail lights and looks somewhat like my JDM S13 grill's pattern. Also it looks to be somewhat JDM because there are wider holes for the license plate screws, and looks like someone had cut squares to make it fit a United States plate. There is a Raybrig logo right above the key hole too. Mounts with all the same factory Hardware too. I haven't found any part number or other markings on this.

I have never seen another one of these or heard about it before. Searching all over the internet I cannot seem to find anything about this, another one for sale, a picture installed, by its self, or even a listing for it. I've tried searching all kinds of different names everything. And whether or not this is really made by Raybrig and I can't find another replica one like this or anything else for sale at all, just stock replacement garnishs/ plate trims/ holders, etc.


Please someone help me figure out the part, if it is real and if so how rare is this, or am I just missing something, Either way I like it and it is different

Here are the Pics, And I can take any other additional pics needed.

Negative on any part numbers or even manufacturing markings, I've looked it over so many times and just checked it again.

And thanks VTEC_Club I will continue my search with those guys

I'm curious if this is some JDM Ricer part that never made it over here

Seen them before but I don't have any information on them.

I do have a photo of one for a 5G Civic though.

Oh, and I would imagine it's for the Japanese market since the license plate mounting holes have been cut out. The Japanese plate holes aren't the same as the US ones IIRC. I had to put a Japanese trunk on a friend's Civic once and that turned out to be a problem.

If I could find one for sale I'd put it on my red '98. Kind of curious how it would look.

I think it might look okay on a bright red car, but no other color.

Should be '98-'00 hatches that have the handle in the license plate area.
