Pics of my own later... Mostly because it's kinda unsightly with the unpainted bumpers and dents, but for now I have some questions about others' cars if that's okay:

It's been a while since I posted but here's my '04 snip

Hi, new to the forum and would like to know what front bumper/lip you two have as I like it better than the simple bottom addition of the HFP lip. I'd also like to know Mivy1224's wheel width, offset, and drop amount.

For you, I'd like to know your wheel width, offset, lowering, and rear bumper lip as well as side skirts, and side and front splitters

My 2007 - 6 speed a few years back. Look at the other cars.

The front and rear are the HFP lips. On mine, I had the gen 7.5 (2006-2007) front lip and the rear lip is from the gen 7 (2003-2005).

Unfortunately I sold the car but I do still have the rear lip and bumper lying around.

Yeah I ended up finding that out like a week later, lol. Supposedly all years of the Honda Inspire (which is the conversion I REALLY want to do for the front end) also have the facelift style bumper, and as such, are compatible with the gen 7.5 HFP lip.

So I guess now I'm looking for confirmation of that, lol.

What side skirt do you have, BTW?

That's just the factory gen 7.5 side skirts. Inspire bumpers are for the sedan so keep that in mind. It's been a while but I recall the sedan fenders and hood are shorter than the coupes. I'm sure you could make the lip mount and fit but keep in mind the shape of the fog light openings for the lip might not match up with the shape of the openings in the bumper.

I've never heard of them being shorter, but I have read that they're narrower... Doesn't make sense either way, TBH... Wish I could find definitive confirmation.

18x10.5+35

On all four!? Why don't you have WAY more poke/camber?

 

[Drnkn_Hmstr]

yup, I had to use 3m automotive tape on some spots around the corners in place of the crappy honda tape. basically took all the honda tape off the sides and corners. Replaced it with the thicker and more sticky 3m double sided tape. I left the honda tape on the back of the bumper because well its the back and its pulled tight and sticks fine. washers for spacers on the wheel wells i still need to get longer screws tho. i also never drilled the holes your suppose to do on both sides so only one screw on each side holding it on.

So that's a facelift HFP rear? What's the difference between it and the non-facelift rear, if so? Also, what's your wheel and tire fitment? My research shows that a 9 wide +45 to +40 is about the most you can fit without poking the lip beyond the fender (normal camber).

Inner clearance is less resolute, but it seems like a 9.5 +45 and 10.5 +31 will clear at least on the rear... I'm looking for the widest reasonable square stance with no poke or rub on a 245-255 tire (45r17 or 40r18) going no lower than -1.5 to -2 front and -0.5 to -1 rear

Kinda hard to find light, strong, not overpriced (above $2400 a set, and I'd really prefer sub $1600) wheels in a 9 wide with the offsets I either need or think I need, hence why I'm trying to figure out if 9.5s can fit all the way around at +42 to +47 offset and clear the suspension on the inside through the steering range.

My 2004 6speed HFP. Needs some tlc but engine is tight, no drips, and a/c works. Still my favorite ride.
