Re: Should I fix or replace my subframe? (HONDAPARTSMANMIKE)
I don't really know what I am looking at. Looks like you took off all the undercoating on the right side and maybe it was sectioned before. If it has a good wheel alignment, I would not even go through all that trouble. Just make sure that it is welded on right and put some rustproofing on it.
On a side note is your spare caved in?

Re: Should I fix or replace my subframe? (blue_hatch)
Why would they put an ek bracket on there LOL. Go through all that trouble. I would not put a whole new subframe on there I would just put that section on. Doing the whole thing will just be asking for problems. If the left side is fine and in spec then I would just put that one corner on. You should be able to find a frame chart for an eg on HT somewhere I think.

I had a customer with a simmilier issue on a 92 Civic Hatch, I found the part at the dealer for only $120. You might want to look into that, it saved me quite a bit of work and time
