01-03 lip fit on 04?

I'm looking at purchasing a lip for my 04 EX. Being that these cars are still so darn new I don't know what parts match from the 01-03 to this car. Does anyone know if the mounting points for the lip are the same on the 04. Also, did the lower part of the bumper change? I know the top obviously changed to accomodate the headlights, but did the lower?

Thanks!

Well . . If it didn't just transfer right over, you could bust out with some tape, some glue, a few new holes, and some wire and probably make it work .

Well, that's the thing. I don't like the OEM front lip for it. I'm going to get the sides and the rear and I want to do a carbon fiber front lip. Just figure it's going to be forever until they get a good one out.

And I'll pass on the ghetto rigging.

no they will not fit at all. Even if the mounting points are the same the lip actually fitting properly wont even come close. Wait it out and do what you can with it. Engine and suspension.

I am sure you can fit sideskirts. OEM lip is would be the only option for front and rear bumper,

I think the front of the 04 looks good without a lip. Just go for skirts, rear lip and spoiler.

dude a 01-03 Lip would look but ugly on a 2004 Civic.
If You want a 01-to 03 lip. then Get a 01-03 civic.

Well DUDE... I wasn't saying I wanted a stock 01-03 lip. I'm looking at aftermarket lips. Like a Spoon or Mugen lip. But I'm kinda ancy to wait around for them to make a lip for my car. Clarified enough for ya?

Well I'm actually pretty new to this whole 7th gen Civic thing so you can lay off a bit. I don't know what's out there for these cars yet. I used to have an 00 Civic Si and a 00 Integra Type R. I'm not going to put any APC or riced out sh*t on my car. I'm assuming some company, whether or not it's Mugen or Spoon, should come out with some ok stuff. Otherwise I'd rather leave it stock.

You must have been crazy to change your 00 Integra Type R for a Civic.

Check this link for JDM Stuff, but no 04 front lip yet.

There was a lot more to it than that. Life changes, etc. I miss it. It was my husbands initially, then it became "our" car. I miss it like crazy though. These little Civic's are SLOW. eeek!

Thank you Lek!

That's WOman to you jdm.

I'm not to fond of the 01-03 style headlights, so I'll pass. I like the "sleek" styling of the 04. If you can even call it that considering it's still just a Civic.
