The bumper on a Civic is mostly cosmetic, just don't bump anything.

Edit: If you have a CAI it is exposed too, might want to revert back to stock.

im pretty sure its illegal. u can go to a junkyard and get a new one off of another car. u can go to a body shop and they can fix it. i got in a wreck last summer and the front bumper was ripped in half and the place i went to fixed it and it looked better than it did before i got in the wreck.

Hey that was me last year. Every hole in the bumper ripped out. Put that puppy back on ripped holes and all and bolted it down.

Finished out the autox season (8 races) and drove it on two trips of 1300 miles each and a last trip that was 2200 mile round trip.

I love the Hondas!
