New OE Honda Bumpers, Trims for My Wagon...

[B18C5-EH2]

Well after an extensive search I was able to locate an OE Honda front bumper - evidently in the Honda parts database this is supposed to be th last one in the country at present. Came from Iowa!!!

So having found the front, I also secired the rear bumper too, along with the apron trim piece that runs along the top of the front bumper, just under the hood and lights. I've also ordered the belt moldings for the driver side/left side doors. The right side ones will be fine to respray them with trim paint - I'd get new ones but the right rear door isn't available through Honda now.

Anyways a few pics:

Now the question I'm asking myself is wether to put them on OE black, or go with the OE 4WD model paint theme. I've always loved the OE painted bumpers the way they left the middle sections and tops black to match the side moldings, but fresh OE black new bumpers seem cool too.

Oh and they're going on this:

...and before anyone else asks:

My current bumpers aren't really that bad, but have a few scuffs on the front and small misc. knicks so I wanted them to be super funky fresh.

:)

I might end up respraying the old bumpers and keeping them as bacl-ups, or maybe sell them to recoup some fundages.

Awww snap! More pieces came in! Front apron and left side belt moldings/trims:

And lastly what knocks on 12 second 1/4 mile times, handles very well, and hold all of the parts even better?

The wagon is fighting the EG to be my fave car. Soon enough the EG will be collecting more dust than it already does!
