Super quick and simple question, didn't see anything in search.

Is there and difference in a rear bumper between a 96-98 coupe and a 99-00 coupe?

thanks

Yeah there is, the 96-98 does't come down as low. It's really hard to tell the difference unless you're looking at a 99-00 with a 96-98 bumper actually on it; looks a tiny little bit goofy.

You can also tell because one is part #21030 and the other is 20129.

 

goofy huh?

my one friend backed into her sister's car, and she has an 00 civic, and i am just trying to see if it would matter or not haha

 

the differences arent that noticeable... they both bolt up the same. if you can get the 96-98 one for cheaper, might as well get it

 

yea i would say it's cheaper since i actually found one locally haha

 

Yeah if it's for someone who is just a casual Honda driver, it won't ever matter.

 

yea, she just drives a 2000 coupe, she just doesn't want it to look like dog ****.

Thanks for the help, I think i'll just pick up this 98 bumper

 

if she has mud guards, it won't fit on on that 98 bumper.

 

pretty sure she doesn't. but i'll double check, thanks.

 

Yup. Lower part on 96-98 goes in but 99-00 sticks out.

 

well long as it isn't super obvious or anything. The bumper will get paint matched, so after that it should look good, right?

 

Yeah, nobody besides people on Honda boards would notice haha. If you parked two cars with the different bumpers side by side you'd probably be able to tell, but it would be a bit like Where's Waldo? or something.
