Looking for either OEM front or urethane kit front...
I'm ion need of an 01-03 coupe front. It can be an OEM front, or a urethane kit front. The car it's going on is my former civic. The gf's sister bought it and has thrashed the glass black widow front. Not beyond repair, but she doesn't need to be driving around with a glass kit cause she's a shitty driver.
I bought the car in October of 2001. Put a kit on it the same week. I drove it up until april of this year with no problems. I never bottomed out and the only incident I ever had was when the honda place cracked it when i went in for a routine service (which was the last they did) and they hung it on the lift. They paid for that repair. I also hit a cat, but it chipped it very small, and I repaired it with my glassing skills (yeah, I have some skills with glass, mainly derived from audio work, but I digress). I switched it after than for the black widow that is on there now. No problems at all with it.
From there, I siold the car to her. She had it a total of less than a week and her bf ran it up on a curb stop for a parking space chipping it in two places. She's subsequently ran it up on several herself, not to mention bottomed it out in places she shouldn't have, etc. The roads here are good, so she really has no excuse other than she sucks at driving.
Regardless, I recommended either an OEM front or a urethane kit front. If it's OEM, i'll need the upper grille with it. Color is of no consequence cause I'll have to take it to my body work guys to have it repainted cause the car is a custom color. Let me hear what ya got.
