Default dc5 rear tophat

hi.. i was looking through the new honda-tuning and they had a little suspension article in it.. i saw that the rear top hats are extended and look like they would fit on civics.. does anyone know if they would fit?? this would help out lots of people if the hats are the same but extended.. someone care to try??

$100 a pair, but that's still expensive. Try finding someone with a welder that will extend your oem top hats.

$21.51 each
You will probably need to get bushings with them too.

They are extended quite a bit. Hopefully these will work out and not be to big like the vigor hats.

oh, i see what youre asking. no, it wont work. those are just as thick, if not thicker than the TL/Accord top hats i thought might work.

check this thread.

if youre that cheap, just have a friend weld you a set.
