Default JDM front on 88 sedan?

Anyone know if this front end will fit on a 88 civic sedan.





Also are 88-91 USDM civic front ends interchangable? 88-89 with 90-91? hatchback front with sedan front?

i'm not sure either, but i don't think hatch front ends fit sedans and vice versa...maybe if you swap fenders too....?

nope...if you're swapping 90-91 jdm hatch front end to 90-91 usdm hatch front end, you don't need the fenders...though they would've been cool...the corners fit right in

You can swap in a JDM Hatch Front Bumper into a sedan, it bolts right up, my friend has already done it. The JDM hood does not fit. The front end of a sedan has "SH4" markings while the hatch is "SH3".

What hood did he use then? Did he use the headlights too, or just the bumper?

No it wont fit. You should get the whole jdm clip for your car. Yes you could put the sir bumper on but its not a bolt on, you still have to do some mods to make it look and fit clean.

He used the stock sedan hood,headlights, and filler.

with the sir bumper into a sedan you just have to 1" spacers in the mounting holes.

Ya, I saw your friends 4door and thats exactly the direction I want to go.

Just one question... did he piece together the front end (stock 90-91 bumper with the JDM lights and hood) or is that what the front clip for a jdm 4 door will look like?



SteevooO, thanks for the link. Do you know if Password:JDM is legit? Have you or any other member here done business with them? Thanks everyone for their help.


just to be clear a USDM 88-89 sedan bumper can be swapped with a USDM 90-91 bumper. right?

yep everyone on this website will say password:JDM is great... I haven't ordered from them, but they do answer emails very promptly and fully

soon as I get the money, hatch jdm front end conversion is coming - that's a great price for all of it - and only $299 shipping to FL
