    It wont work and it isnt possible. Haha, just kidding. I really dont know about it, I dont know the dimensions of the 4th gen Accords, but your biggest problem is to take into account the headlight design. Fixed versus motorized on the 3geez. The front bumper will be shapely differently for those headlights.

    Unless there are any guys around here that know, you need to go out and find a friend, or find a salvage yard, and take a tape measure with you. Measure your car first, to get an idea of the scope, if it's even within limits. My guesstimate would be that the 4th g will be bigger than the 3rd g. Length-wise atleast. As far as height, they will probably be pretty similar. It's not too hard to shave the bumper though, praying that it's the right size. If you can get lucky and nab a bumper for $10 like Mike, then buy it and take it home lol. $10 isnt something that'll dent your wallet. Just go without food for a couple days lol.

    anything can be molded so it's just a question of how much work you plan on doing.
    one of my 88 lx's is up for parts. good engine and transmission. pretty much everything is there. the fenders and hood are bad but other than that it's pretty good.

    RIP my beutiful 5g coupe. May the villans rot in hell!

    I have a 90-93 accord bumper on my car and it was a b!t(# to get on. I wouldn't suggest doing it unless you have the know how. you probably just should take it to a body shop to put it on because they can make anything work.
    Its like washing your hands before you wipe your ass, its pointless...

    It looks to me like an R34 Skyline with customized doors in his avatar.
