Rep Power: 0 Serious rear bumper cover help on my '07
So I was rear ended 3 weeks ago and just got my car back but something is off. I have a 2007 EX coupe with the Honda OEM under body package on the front and back and my "fixed" car now has a different rear bumper cover than it did before. The new one seems smaller, and more rounder but the garage does not know what to think. Can someone help me out on what type of rear bumper I may need? I have seen 4-5 different ones but not sure what I had (no pics due to hard drive crash)

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Factory catalog, USA market, part number comparison
For the bumper cover:
4 door
I see one for SI
One for the rest.
2 door
only 1 choice.
OEM replacement bumper cover would have a DOT sticker, no VIN tag.
Factory original bumper cover would have a VIN tag. If there is a VIN and it doesn't match your VIN, then I'd assume it is a used cover.
The accessory body kit parts don't have any VIN or DOT sticker.
I only see one style of "rear under spoiler" in the catalog for a 2 door car.
---> Maybe the bodyshop guys just "stuck it on" to the new rear cover without using instructions. <---
Aftermarket could have many other options.
