No that's BS!

I have a 88 Si and I have a 91 front bumper that's fits Perfectly!
And that's with a 88 hood, fenders, and lights!

Don't believe it?...then come see for yourself!

Hey White CRX, is this bumper an OEM bumper, or one of those $75 clones?
The reason I ask is because I bought a clone some time ago, and it did not fit...and it WAS for a 88. I bought an OEM 91 and it fit perfectly.
Aftermarket bumpers don't always fit or line up right. I can also say from my time in a body shop that aftermarket hoods and fenders sometimes don't fit right either.

In this market...you get what you pay for.

did you use your 88 bumper support or did you use the 90-91 one? because i tried it with the 90-91.
