Whats up guys, I got a replica BYS bumper... but latley i've been deciding on just keeping it with a stock front bumper, doing a Si front lip, and of course the same old jdm fogs but maybe get the password jdm foglight bezel that just came out.

or go with the BYS? the BYS replica is fiberglass...

its for an ek hatch. the car is going to be painted moonrock grey most likely.

 

who cares. . . there are upon hundreds of thousands of civics with both combination. . . ur pos is just gonna be another"JDM" bandwagon car. . .

 

Oem bumper, with OEM fogs


the fitment will > the "look" of the bys

 

Jumping on the banwangon calling other peoples cars jdm banwagons.....nice.

 

They only make the replica Airwalker bumper, because BYS has the carbon kevlar lip. ANyway, i'd try that. if you get tired of it, then just throw the stock back on. And post up in this thread when you've installed it/test fit. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2147888

And just for reference, here's a replica version of this bumper. Looks pretty good imo.





clean hatch

haha, thanks man...


My airwalker fits just as good if not better than my oem bumper. I doubt the replica will do the same though. I have nothing against replica parts. However, if it's a body panel it's definitely worth it to pay the extra money, and get the real thing.

Actually, i just relized i meant BYS has the carbon kevlar lip. Fixed.

 

haha no problem, i fixed it aswell

i had emphasis on this part...

Anyway, i'd try that. if you get tired of it, then just throw the stock back on.

I like the BYS only for turbocharged cars, otherwise I'd go with stick and Si lip

agreed

 

i voted oem, but i like em both

 

Just paint both of them and decide for yourself,, that way you will always have a fresh spare bumper laying around

 

stock with the lip

You're a sh!thead sir.

I think you should go with the oem bumper, unless you wanna shell out the cash for the real deal. Its not the real/fake debate, I just have seen a lot of bys replica's that dont fit as well.

Good luck

 

Thanks for the input guys

i think im going to do both painted, then whatever, cruise the BYS and see how it looks etc...

 

bys!

 

I wouldn't recommend firberglass anything if it's a daily-driven car. If anyone backs into you it will shatter. Polyurethane ftw.
