Coupe/Hatch bumpers fit. You need to drill a hole in the bumper to line up with the hole on the fender though.

Look at the white sedan, I have a coupe/hatch bumper and it looks fine!

according on this article http://civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=10855 it doesnt lining up properly as the sedan hood is thinner, may i know how did you manage to get the bumper fitted?

thanks.

youre probably just going to have to trim it down and drill new holes. Nothing too complicated :thumb:

I was under the impression that the issue with the coupe/hatch front bumpers on sedans was the fitment at the fender?? The coupe/hatch fenders are different than the sedan. I have seen people chop the fender in two, and attach the coupe/hatch front of the fender to the sedan rear portion to achieve fittment. Correct me if I am wrong, I too kinda dig the coupe/hatch front bumper.
