Default Bumper height of civics?

I know the ground clearance of the 92-95 civics is about 5.9" but I was wondering what the bumper height was. Does anybody know of the bumper heights for the various honda model years?

When I say bumper height, I'm speaking of the beam that actually absorbs impact, not the bumper cover found in body kits and whatnot. The weird part about all of this is that I can't find this information in the service manual.

It wouldn't be in the service manual because that is part of the technical drawing. It doesn't have anything to do with SERVICING the vehicle; hence, it is not included in the SERVICE manual.

I say again: why do you want to know?

I want to know if the bumper support is at the upper limit and or limit, 22inches that cars are regulated to be at. I believe the height range for the bumper on cars in the USA is 14-22inches, I'm just curious what it is on the Civic.

Oh, well I have no idea what this "limit" is that you're talking about. Is it some type of federal regulation or what?

So you want to know just for the sake of knowing? You're just curious george or what?

wow whats it matter why he wants to know?

OP if i knew i would tell you. i am assuming it has something to do with not wanting to get in trouble for being too low? idk though, i never really messed around with that kinda stuff. in iLL they could careless what you do to your car as long as you don't have a big fart can.

Nothing wrong with being curious. I like to know how stuff works and why it works the way it does. Don't misunderstand. I was just making an observation. Generally, when people post in this forum, there is some problem that needs to be solved. That is what I was trying to find out: whether he had a problem that he needed help with. In this case, there is no problem, just curiosity, which is cool. I'm curious too.
