Default EM1 Front lip hardware

Does anyone know where I can get the brackets/Clips plus the bolts to bolt it to my bumper. I don't want to shell out $40 bucks on jdmland.com for the hardware nor the dealership. I remember someone telling me that they found some similar ones at lowe's on a thread a really long time ago, but I can't quite remember. Any help?

Trust me when I saw go to Ace Hardware or another hardware store. Just look at the lip and bumper before hand and figure out about how big everything needs to be, then buy bolts and clips according to that.

OEM hardware is expensive and tends to rust.

If you get the part numbers of the bolts, you can figure out the sizes of the bolts.

I made another thread showing how to read bolt part numbers like that.

Thanks for the reply NOFX. I found the part numbers here: http://www.myhondapartsstore.com/myh...s=&view=normal

(39 & 41) but I'm having a hard time figuring out the sizes from that diagram you posted.

Most people don't even use that to figure out the bolts.

Basically you need to look at the parts (lip and bumper) and then pick up any spring nuts and bolts that will fit each other and are the approximate size you need on your parts.

This is how everyone else usually seems to figure out what size they need.

I know for my lips we just went to hardware store, looked for bolts approximately the size we wanted and then looked for the spring nuts that match to those.

It was very easy. We were probably in and out in about ten or fifteen minutes including time ringing out.

I really think you're making this harder on yourself than it needs to be.

There is no exact size it needs to be unless you're using OEM spring clips or OEM bolts for whatever reason, both of which don't make much sense.

I have a tendency to over analyze things. Thanks for the advice

Hey, no problem at all. I totally know what you mean about over analyzing things. It's basically a hobby for me.
