02 civic bumper questions

Hey,

Quick question, the radiator cover/bottom grille on the stock 02 civic coupe front bumper, is that removable or part of the bumper?

Also, for the rear bumper, what year 7th gen civic's rear bumper WOULDN'T work on an 02 civic? Just 04 or 05? Not really sure. How about the ones with the built in lip, would those work on a LX?

And lastly, do 04/05 civic coupe taillights work on an 02 civic?


Thanks

Front radiator cover is permanently attached. You'd have to cut it out. I cut mine out a while back to fit an intercooler back when my car was turbo'd. Car is no longer turbocharged.

Rear bumpers, iirc, if you have a coupe, any 01-05 coupe rear bumper will work. Same goes for if you have a sedan; any 01-05 sedan bumper will fit.

04-05 tail lights will fit, but you have to change out the pigtail terminal and turn signal socket.

Here's my DIY to depin the old pigtail terminal and repin the new pigtail terminal. My DIY guide requires no crimping, soldering, etc.

Here's a DIY guide that uses OEM parts, but requires crimping or soldering

Here's the original DIY guide that kinda ghetto rigs it in place. It's fully functional, but at the end of the day, completely ghetto rigged.
