Question 2002 Hood Protector Fit 2004?

Hi, I just recently purchased a 2004 Civic Coupe. I thinking of purchasing a Saddleman hood protector (demi bra) from JC Whitney. However, the listings only go up thru 2002. I know JC Whitney is sometimes slow at updating their listings to newer years so the question is this: Are the hoods on 2002 vs 2004 the same and will the hood protector listed for 2002 fit?

Many thanks.

Not sure about your question but why not just get a hood deflector instead? It looks a lot better then an unsightly bra in my opinion and it dosn't leave that weird "uncleaned" spot when you take it off.

heres a pic of it (don't mind the yellow stuff. My friend decided to "fancy up" the civic with a lil mustard)

I agree, don't get any kind of a bra, just get a deflector, underneath the bra is just left so gross and dirty when you take it off.

I can appreciate what you guys are telling me about a bra. I've had them on other vehicles and you have to make a point of removing it every so often to clean under it. As long as that's done on a regular basis I've encountered no problems.

A hood deflector is certainly an option and I currently have one of my truck. And I guess it's a matter of taste. I would prefer a bra on the Civic rather than a hood deflector. So I'm still wondering if the 2002 would fit.

Won't fit , because 2004 Front bumper is totally different than 01-03 bumpers.

OK, But I'm interested in a "demi bra" which fits on the hood ONLY. Is the hood the same?

no the hood is not the same. The hood, bumper, fenders, and headlights are all different on the 04 compared to the 01-03 civics.
