Should I buy this OEM Style Front Bumper?

I am in need of a new front and rear bumper, but because of OEM cost, I was looking at this one, my only concern is the fitment of those OEM style ones, what do you think?

I bought a rear bumper replacement for my father's 2003 civic sedan and the fitment was poor. It was off by quite a bit.

OEM is the only thing that first the best but costs the most.

Fitment shouldn't be that big of a problem considering abs plastic is pretty flexable. I'd say it's worth a shot.

I just dont want to get it, then the fitment be so poor. Dont these bumpers already come drilled with the holes? It is a OEM bumper, just not from honda.

If you look at the gaps and such, the bumper replacement I bought for my dad is off. The lines just don't fit correctly at all. Had the body shop install it too.

I bought my bumper painted off user partmartone.

Well, my question is, are you trying to get your car back to stock so you can sell it?

Or did you maybe get into an accident and getting a replica to save money?
