Default just a quick bumper question.

okay so i put 1990 civic hatch fenders onto my CRX because the civic's were in perfect condition and i didnt want to pay 300+ for new crx fenders. i used the corner lenses from the civic also so they fit also. but one thing that doesnt line up is the bumper, since the civics have the spacer piece between the bumper and the hood. i was wondering if the civic and CRX bumpers are different, and if i found a civic bumper and put it on, if it would line up nicely or not. thanks in advance guys.


here's how it looks:

Yes the bumpers are different...you need to get the civic front filler and bumper,then it will line up perfect..

The only thing i dont like about this is the lower panels not being there..

well if you install the filler piece you are going to also have to install a civic fender on the other side, btw, i dont think it is as simple as adding a filler piece to make the bumper and fenders work. you will end up changing the entire front end of the car for not wanting to get a fender, which you can get at a junk yard for $50
