Okay, I have an '05 Si, its a hatchback. I'm in the market for body kits, and everything I find says "03 Civic".

Does anyone know for a fact that an '03 front bumper, side skirts, and rear bumper wont fit on mine.

I've pretty much only found one body kit i'm interested in, but I sure dont wanna get something if its almost the only thing available to me.
(The wings west body kit featured on the AlpineSi. Sure it looks great, I just have my fingers crossed that an '03 kit will fit on mine... Or that there is a group of body kits out there for '05s that is just hiding from me)

 

ya its because the 05 is still pretty new, i would just drop wings west a call and ask them yourself just to make sure

 

^^ agrees.

BTW-good body kit choice... Wings West usually makes pretty good lookin kits, IMO. Post pics after installation.

 

Oh no, the wings west one is specifically for an '05. (Or at least is advertised as compatible with an '05)

What i'm wondering, is if an '03 kit would fit. This is my first stab at any body work. But if I had to guess, I would imagine that i could possibly get an '03 front bumper, but then i would have to find an '05 side-skirt and rear bumper to match... It just wouldn't be as nice of work unless I got REALLY lucky in coming across two body kits that work together nicely. I dunno, that just doesn't strike me as something i wanna do.

Man... I bet the wings west kit is gonna break my wallet. I dunno, we've got a retailer (According to WingsWest's site) a few blocks away from where I live. I'm gonna go see if they can price it for me. *sigh* I soooo hate finding out how much things cost. Buying them doesn't bother me, its just finally discovering how much money i need that bothers me, LoL

Edit: It just crossed my mind to post a pic of the kit that wings west offers.




And now that I look at it again after a few weeks of not seeing it....i'm kinda getting second thoughts about it

 

yeah... now that I look at it... im not too crazy about it either. Go to andysautosport.com to find a better lookin kit.... they have a TON and aren't too badly priced either....just an idea....

 

i can't link to it, but the 11-piece wings west body kit for an '05 civic si shows the parts listed as "03 and 02" like this:

890749 02-03 CIVIC Si G55 FRONT AIR DAM (US VERSION)

And up near the top of the page, it shows that the body kit is for "Year:02-Up"
See, that right there is exactly what lead me to asking, about an 03 (or 02) bodykit fitting on this 05

because if the 02 and 03 kits will fit, then i know exactly what i want...
anyway, i gotta get to work, if anyone knows for sure, if an 02 or 03 HB bodykit will fit on an 05 HB please lemme know

 

actually i like it
