A coupe has the rear bolts farther back. I bought this for my coupe at a local shop, and it was much cheaper than thePassword JDM bars, although it doesn't come in "JDM Bronze":



Here's the shop. If you want to call them, ask for Nam and tell him you want the trunk monkey bars like he sold to Roger for his Civic coupe:

The shop is in Raleigh, NC, but he'll ship it.

Here's the EM site:

I think that whole rear setup for my coupe only cost $150. I'm going to make the setup for my new hatch though.

If you really have money burning a hole in your pocket, can't you find something more useful to spend it on?

I'd call Nam at Phantasm and verify it. I still haven't seen the coupe bars listed on the Password JDM site yet.

everything on password's website says "hatch hatch hatch only" but that website, which is selling password's product, just says 96-00 civic...thats why im questioning it.

yeah, im kind of thinking its just a typo on that website...because if password had one that fit coupes, they would probably have it on their website :-/

4PT BAR APPLICATIONS COMING SOON:
- EG2 Del Sol
- EG/EK 4dr
- EG/EK coupe

all above are expected to release before summer hits </TD></TR></TABLE>
