The stock sport/sport touring lip is actually ridiculously expensive. This is a perfect time to change out to the Si middle section/bottom grille and go with aftermarket front lip. This is a much cheaper option.

basically you DO NOT need a whole new bumper, just change the lip out.

I personally have the front lip with the carbon accent.

It doesn't fit like OEM and will take some fiddling to make it fit, but it's a good replacement if you don't want to buy the OEM front lip that'll cost you around $400.

However, I do have to let you know, the front lip makes your car quite a bit lower in the front and so you'll have to be a little bit more careful if you don't want to scrape it everywhere you go.

Did this too when I broke my lower grill. For the same price of the OEM sport lip and grill, I got the LX one and a GReddy carbon lip.

So a si front lip/lower grille would swap for a sport touring front lip/lower grille and fit perfect?

Yes the Si parts will fit a sport and sport touring front bumper HATCH ONLY. I’m guessing you’re a hatch by the name anyway.
But you also have to trim a tiny bit in each wheel well liner because the Si lip doesn’t flare out like the Sport. So where the Si lip curves underneath the bumper, the wheel liners will interfere.

Actually the Mugen lip fits over the sport hatch lip as well as the Si lip. In the instructions for the Mugen lip actually has support brackets that attach to the Sport lip.

Yeah I haven’t tested it myself but from reading a lot on the forums you can use the stock lip of the non sport civic n it should fit. They did say something about the si one instead which idk if it makes that much of a difference but the si’s lower grille is more open I believe. If you end up trying this lmk how it goes I pray for your civi to make a quick recovery
