I have one laying around if you want it. $40 shipped to PA. It's a solid chrome ebay rear strut bar. I can take pics tonight if you want it. I had it on my car for the first two years I had it. Let me know if you want it. Peace

Its a generic rear bar. There's no name or anything on it. I found a pic of what it looks like. I can take more pics tonight and send them to you in the morning.

2 bolts on each side if I remember correctly.

You'll need extensions to reach the inside bolts.

Make one or go generic, IMO

Unless you track race, save your money

If you want to spend the cash spoon sports make one for the civic, models: EM2, ES1, ES3
