So theres a lot of coupes and sedans at the junk yard, and it seems all are 99-00...

I have a 98 hatch. What I only need the front bumper reinforcement bar. So I am curious if a 99-00 reinforcement bar will work on a 98?

From my searching I see it shouldnt matter if its from a coupe or sedan the front ends are "the same" except minor things but the guts under the covers should be equal. Correct?


Turning a drag car back into a safe street car. Thanks in advance. Been searching a while but its getting late! haha.
I am so used to ED's and I know the 88-89 and 90-91 rebars are different on those...

Any help would be appreciated.

they're the same. the only difference is the bumper brackets on top.

They are all pretty much interchangeable. However, some are different in weight. I believe the ITR are lighter than the previous integras and civics

Awesome. I had no idea. Thanks a lot!

I will slam a sedan or couple rebar from a 96-98 onto my 98 hatch and just for fun, update you all when its complete with a pic!

they're all the same front ends, so I don't understand why there is any confusion.

Well theres confusion because I guess I just had no idea they were all the same! Haha.

Hopefully the next person to search the key words I chose will find this (must be weird Canadian terminology I typed in... lol)

Anyways, long story short I ended up using a 00 re-bar on my 98. I tried to use the foam from the 00 but it didnt quite work. The rest worked great!
