im thinking about putting a 98 front end on my 96 integra i perfer to use oem parts but the front bumper is so hard to come by used in my area, so im thinking about the aftermarket oem style, if anyone got one on there car please chime in pics would be great to

 

to put a 98-01 front bumper on a 94-97 all you need is the bumper and headlights, everything else matches up but you MUST get the head lights also...

 

The after market ones don't say "INTEGRA" on the front. Get an OEM one imho...

I've currently got an after market one, but will be installing this OEM one soon...
First shot is after market, second is OEM.....

wow i got a bumper of a guy for 20$ said he thinks it was from ebay , but i just went outside after reading this and it says INTEGRA , so i have an oem 98+ bumper???

 

x2 aftermarket has horrible fitment

 

i heard that is true, that the headlights will be too in

 

Go OEM for the lights too. You can see how the after market passenger side in the first shot leaks and fogs....

thanks for the pics also the gap around the headlights not that even and passenger signal looks outta place, so it does fit like crap Dang i guess im gonna have to be patient until an OEM one comes around if anybody got 98-01 OEM teggy front bumper FS let me know

 

Good luck, hard to go wrong with OEM parts....

 

when i had an aftermarket one, it fit pretty damn good. Fitment is great if a body shop does it. When I replaced it with a Type R bumper and lip, I couldn't get the headlights to line up perfectly...

 

I know this thread is old but Dang! These bumpers are hard to come by. If it does its gone as fast as it comes. Dont like aftermarket. They got mad gaps. OEM is expensive as hell at Acura. They quoted me 3 something hundred. I NEED A BUMPER

 

Haha I have a brand new 98-01 unpainted bumper that I bought from Acura like 2 years ago.

I was gonna sell it for 200$ but shipping for it was like 80$!! Obviously the buyer didnt want to pay 280$ for a piece of plastic. At that point, if I was the buyer, I woulda stuck with the 94-97 front end.

Still got it tho

+ 98 corners, and 98 corner brackets....

I also went with a OEM bumper, I got mine for $100 but it was slightly bent, guy had a small car to put it in, and a crack on the bottom, which will be covered by a 98+ Type R lip.

PMed'

 

I actually like the 94-97 front ends (am I the only one?). I like the 98's, too, but the older styles still look great. I'd just throw on an ITR lip and call it good.

 

keep the old front man!
just get a sir-g lip!
94-97 FTW!!

x3 I can vouch for this personally, bought an aftermarket one, signal lamps don't sit right, and the corners right next to the fenders fit HORRIBLY. I'll take some pics and show you what I mean in the morning, too late now,

I'd rock an OEM 94-97 front before a replica 98-01 front. I wrecked my OEM 94 front and bought a painted replica 98 front because that's what I could afford then. Took it off and bought a JDM front. The fitment is lackluster on the replicas.

Someone's selling a complete 98 front end for $300. Bumper, both fenders, and hood.

Gonna go check it out and see what condition its in. I only need the bumper and fender so we'll see.

 

uggghhh, I was misinformed. It was a 94 front end.
