there's no way to could be a 96-98, because it would sit completely wrong on the bumper.

just to let you know. bump for a very nice Civic Si.
it could be a 96-98 hood because it has the same gap between the bumper and the hood. i had a 96 coupe that the guy swapped out the bumper,headlights and fender's to a 99-00 and it still had the 96-98 hood. it fit just like that.
