just curious if someone has put a 96-00 civic front lip on a 92-95 civic

im sure its been done and im prtty sure ive seen a post or 2 about it before and paid no attention. but now i cant find anything by searching.

and by the way.. someone should adjust the search so you can use a 2 characters instead of 3.

it would make searching alot better since alot of stuff is abriviated like ek, eg, 92, 00 , etc.

butyea im asking cause i want a abs spoon lip for my hatch and they only make them for newer civics.

 

Either one, 96-98 and 99-00 are different?

 

well i found a 99-00 spoon abs style.. just wondering how hard to make it fit.

I put a 99-00 on my 98 and it was littel bit of a pain in the *** but I bet it could be done with enough effort to make it look good.

I know this doesn't help you much but I do know the 99-00 is about 2 in longer leaving you more room for trimming.

 

2 in longer from ground up? or from side to side (like left fender to right fender)

 

Side to side.

It does not wrap completely around the 96-98 bumper.

 

damn maybe i shoulnt even bother then.

If it's cheap you might as well give it a try.

 

well i would if iknew it would be a close fit. i mean ive done conversions before. i did an itr front end on my old eg hatch. but i just dont really want to spend a day trying to make a lip fit. if its kinda close and just needs to be bent alittle and rivited on or whatever thats not a big deal. but id rather not have to fiberglass or epoxy anything
