this is a real 2000 not some backwards 97 front end conversion as some people that were later kicked in the nuts for owning a 2000 civic said-_-. tell me what you think of it.. been going for bout 3 months with it
I dont really like it because the whole reason the old bumper works is because the opening is so wide. The new bumper its smaller but the grille is wider and the fog cutouts balance it out. Its not horrible, but it doesnt look right. The opening looks weird being so small without fog holes.

cut the guy some slack for tryin something new, i mean come on thats how most honda fads start. anyways, o.p., i am curious as to how you shaved it, did you fill it with a ton of bondo or did you fiberglass it or what?
Im not a hater but 99-00 si front end people love those fog lights. Real talk its not noticabal for an 99-00 front untill you spec the grill ,almost fooled me 4 an 96-98 look.
Not for nothing, i've seen a lot of different things done to hondas on this site. Most one off ideas are definatly a little on the crazy side but this one isnt that. Sure its not everyones cup of tea but its definatly not crazy or ugly. People need to stop hating on something thats a little out of the norm!
first time I ever see this.
Nice color for sure, as for the shaved bumper, I think it would of looked nicer with the oem style and your lip.

Definitely original. I think if u tried swapping a 96-98 bumper it would match more because the opening is bigger. If u did that I think it would look really good. And you probably would start a trend! I think I would do it if I had a 99-00 front end.
