its for the bumper, there is a foam piece that goes in between the metal bar and the polyurethane bumper..

we got screwed in america, but when dont we with jdm cars?? japan and europe get the more powerful engines than we do, our hondas are what i like to say "watered" down,

but then agian, we want jdm front ends, some of them over there in japan want usdm front ends..

The First Native USDM B16 was in the Delsol VTEC, and then in 99-00 Civic Si.

No USDM EG coupe, sedan, hatch came with a b16.

The US Market has no love from honda, all of our stuff as posted above is water down. We dont even get Civic Hatches anymore. :thumbdown:

#175304 my car is a 93' civic EX coupe with a stock D16Z6 sohc vtec, im doing a b16a sirII swap in it, from japan.

and my car is completely stock besides the swap and wire tuck, oh and painting the bay..

oh, talked to a buddy of mine, he bought an EJ1 front clip and his doesnt have that bumper support either, if your going drag, whatever, but daily driver, weld something on there man, front end collision is gonna suck
