Hey whats up everyone. I am wanting to get a C-west front bumper on my 99 Si once I return from this deployment. My car is turboed and has a FMIC. I had to cut a lot of that black plastic stuff to make it fit right with the stock bumper. Is anyone here running C-west front end with a intercooler? If so how did it fit up caue if you have to cut it all up ill prolly just buy a knock off c-west bumper instead of the 500 dollar real one. I just dont want to pay 500 some dollars for a bumper that i am gonna have to hack all up. Any info will be hlepful.

 

bump!!!!!!!!

 

make sure u have a bodyshop fit the bumper with the intercooler

 

nice car!!!

 

yeah...you need to cut the bumper a pretty good amount in order to fit an intercooler/piping since the c-west fitment is very tight. Here are a few before/after pics

 

Wow guys thanks for the great info. I knew you would have to cut it but I didnt think it was gonna be that much. Also is that a real C-west front end or is it a knock off? Just curious. But thanks for the pics, you are a big help!!!!

 

its authentic

 

 

Sweet

 

what a sweet looking hatch! If i had one i would want it to look as clean as yours.

 

 

i really like the cwest kit.. think its the only kit that looks more nice than rice
anyways.. anyone got pics of the rear?

 

anoth Q on this kit, dont you have to remove the bumper support for it to fit on these cars?

 

i would love to see a c-west front bumper on a eg, other then the actual c-west civic. does anyone have one?

 

i had a real cwest kit on my 240sx back in the day and when i put my SR motor in i had to cut the front bumper alot. the cwest kits go really far back in the front. other than that the real kit is really strong i wouldnt suggest getting a copy. copies are always pieces of ****

 

I agree 100%

thanks everyone for the nice comments...just sold the car and I miss it a lot

here is a pic of the rear taken about a year ago from a feature

 

Here is mine Don't mind the doors, they arn't like that anymore. That was just done for SEMA.

 

The c-west is just begging to have a FMIC in it.

 

does the rear bumper look like its tilted up?
