Sedan Rear bumper fitment USDM/JDM

***Epileptic*** · 02-05-2008, 08:58 PM

I know i should have searched harder and this maybe a dumb question, but I kinda gave up searching and really want to know something.
All info and help is appreaciated (+rep for anyone! haha.

)
So after I saw the look of the INGS+1 kit for the JDM FD Civic Sedan, I fell in love. But I would like to know if a JDM rear bumper can fit in on the lines of the USDM spec Civic. Ive tried looking at pictures and coming to my own conclusion but im not quite sure. will i need to to go with a JDM rear conversion or will the INGS+1 rear bumper fit within the lines of the UDSM tails and trunk.
thanks!

Since you're aching for an answer and noone seems to know for sure. I've got a hunch for you.

If you compare just the rear bumper from US spec sedan to the Japanese spec sedan you can see they are quite similar. However, even if it did fit (which i doubt) you generally have to also swap your usdm bumper beam with that of a jdm one. They almost always go hand in hand in my experience.

^ No, you don't need to swap the crash bar, at least on the 8th gens.

And to answer the OP's question, I would say yes, it should fit. The JDM rear fits the USDM rear, so if the INGS kit fits the JDM, it should also fit the USDM.

Coles Notes: If A=B and B=C, therefore A=C.

I'd get confirmation on this though before you buy such a large-ticket item.

thanks for the input guys. i have no problems as concerns to the crash bar(if i needed to change it), but i was just wondering because im considering purchasing the INGs kit. I guess il just wait until someone else tries it.

the JDM rear bumper is a direct bolt on to any USDM civic sedan.
