Wrong the JDM bumper support is the lightest. You can get one new from PasswordJDM.com

 

yeah their is not bumper support for jdm its just two brackets that hold the bumper up

 

Do they fit on 90-91 ED's ?

 

he is looking for the lightest for his usdm crx therefore the 88-89 hf is the lightest so you my friend are wrong

Looks like he was talking bumper supports in general, but what do I know....

 

will the "JDM" bumper support work to hold an 88-89 usdm CRX bumper(w/ an si lip, if that matters) on my usdm '88 CRX DX? also do you know the exact weight of the JDM peice? i am a machinist by profession and a metal trader by hobby so i was considering fabbing up aluminum supports, if its worth the effort. JDM front and rear or just front? sorry if im being a noob with too many questions.

 

I'll go take a look at it tomorrow, but I'm going to say as of now that the JDM support will hold up the US front bumper. Also it weighs under 4lbs.

Yeah you are wrong my friend, do not argue.

 

i seriously cannot find them on PasswordJDM.com... anywhere else to get them?

 

The real question here is does the HF bumper support fit a 4dr

I would throw down some money for one if you really did it (maybe 2 pairs)

 

why not stop trying to remove weight from important areas of your car and either make more power or put your focus elsewhere? No need to remove a safety feature from your car for a few pounds.

 

once i can pick up a decent civic/CRX for a daily driver i'll be able to dig into my CRX more. then i'll see about fabbing up supports. i'll let you know when i get around to that.

 

this car is not going to be a daily driver and i just want to lose as much weight out of the car as possible(except the interior). it might take me forever to pay for it all but i'm planning on ALOT of carbon fiber.

 

fiberglass is much cheaper and performs the same operation. If you're really making a race car then invest in some lexan as well.

 

yes there will be some lexan in the mix too. anybody ever done a side by side comparison of carbon fiber and fiberglass, weight-wise?
