Will RSX parts fit 7thgens?

Seeing as both the RSX and 7thgen Coupe's carry the same platform... will upper and rear strut tower bars made for the RSX fit our Civic's? Anyone know?

pretty much. The chassis is pretty much the same. Most parts will fit, some may need no modification, some may need a little modification. Parts from the Si will also fit.

most parts would fit. such as rear upper strut bar, low tie bar. sway bar setups. some of front sway bar will work as well. not sure about front upper strut bar. 7thgen's hood might not clear some of strut bars.
