from what I heard the CRX bumpers fit but they dont look good or line up correctly

Putting on a crx bumper on a hatch is a bit more work then you think. For one the hatch has a filler peice under the headlights that the crx does not have. So that will need to be removed from your civic also you will need crx fenders. The down side is on crx they have a lower plastic trim peice going all along the bottom of the car. If you were to get crx fenders there is a plastic trim peice that covers the bottom of the fender. This would look bad and i have seen pictures to proove that all the bumper conversion does is screw up the hatches bodylines. Your better off with a 1990-1991 civic front end with the factory lip.

not a problem, i know on honda tech if you search you can find some talk about it and pictures for you to get the idea. If you do find some pics you will know what i mean when i say the bottom trim peice on the fender throws it all off.

thanks bro..1 more question, i have a 92-95 civic bodykit on my car so does that mean that my fenders are from a eg 2?...i bought the car with it done already so i'm not sure??

ummm.. well if you really do have an eg front bumper put it this way... They prolly cut the bumper to fit and modified it whatever which way and bolted up. I don;t know why they would do this, but it would be nice to see pics. If they retained the 88-91 civic front head light then no you don't have eg fenders. It would be nice to see pictures because its beyond me to put a 92-95 civic front bumper on an ef. They must have really liked one bumper in paticular that wasn;t offered for the 88-91 civic. I am still sorta sketical on this one, but like i said post some pictures.

Those are civic fenders. Also i can;t seem to make out the front bumper, but if its anything hacked up like the rear one i would assume its off a 95 aswell. I would source the wings west front and rear bumper to complete the kit. I personally like unkitted cars.

yeah i'm trying take the back n the front off thats y i wanted to know if the crx fitted the hatch but i'm gonna get the 90-91 n put the lip on it

well now the problem is i think if you put the stock front and read bumper on its going to look weird with the door caps and side skirts on the car. To take those off is a bitch as you will need the car to be painted. Its totally up to you, but like i said you can always source out the proper wings west front and rear bumper that go with that kit. The front and read bumpers from the wing west king aren;t too bad at all.

i know there metal replacement panels and body parts are mint but i have never had experience with there plastics ie. bumpers . However i am sure they garentee fitment as any aftermarket company should. I see you have your car up for sale so i am sure you are not interested anymore is swapping over bumpers.
