Default Strutbar Fitment

Will a 92-00 civic Spoon front strutbar fit a 91 rex ? I did a search and came up with nothing. Thank you in advance.

you answered your own question.

just buy the bar made for your chassis, and slap a spoon sticker on it.

grog no offense but thats pretty cheap... the point of it being spoon is for the function. At least thats the reason I would wanna buy Spoon over, lets say ebay brand.

and for you I LOVE OXYCONTENT it wont work.

well sorry but there are other options outside of ebay made to fit this chassis with decent designs (nuespeed, password jdm come to mind)
If the OP had said his buddy was giving him the bar for free it would be different.
As long as the bar doesnt have pivot points (like adjustable bars do) it will work fine just look for a one one piece design.

88-00 bars all fit the same. Whats the point of buying a 88-91 bar when all others fit as well? and besides, EGAY has some pretty "mad tyte JDM" ones that they sell. haha

I have a Backyard Special bar off of an EG on my 89 Hatch.
I guess it depends on the design.

The bar probably fits fine but the OXY has him all tripped out. He might be mounting it backwards or something.

Well, the point of a strut bar is to stiffen up your chassis. That means the bar itself needs to be stiff. One of my EG's came with a DC rear strut bar, that **** was so flexible it was ridiculous. What a cheap piece of crap.

idk, i'd have to see proof that one strut bar is better than the other before i would make an assumption on them. i DO know what they're for, i'm not a total ****ing moron, but most of the time, you end up paying for the name. obvious parts, not included.

the way I was saying he misspelled it was the way it is spelled when sold as a illegal substance. Street form of it is MORE powerful than the medicinal form.
