The amazon site these sell on stipulate these panels will not fit Canadian Si. I’m guessing they’re sourced from the same place. You could maybe cut open a hole on the shroud where the washer liquid cap sticks out
My fault for not checking. I just assumed they're all the same haha! Anyone from the states wanna come pick this up for free? Lol

They fit really well. I think they come from the factory in some markets but not sure.

Just installed the side panel covers for my engine bay. Not a major mod or something that’s terribly noticeable but I think it really classes up the engine compartment. Had a little difficulty with two of the clips which I need to replace and one actually fell into my engine bay which hopefully doesn’t get in the way of any moving parts, I may have to remove the shroud underneath the car to get it out but other than some clips I need to replace I think this came out pretty decent.

Lol I honestly was staring at the picture for 5 minutes trying to figure out what you changed. I’m so blind :doh:, but also a testament to how natural it looks that I didn’t even notice. Nice stuff!

It’s crazy because the holes are even already in the sheet metal so you can install it lol. It definitely should’ve came with them from the factory. Looks very clean! I’m definitely ordering some. Thanks for finding these and sharing with us!

I just ordered some for mine and my girlfriends car. Found them on eBay. Was able to get two sets for $67 total and free shipping. Not bad at all. Had to get them after seeing the before and after pictures. Looks so complete with them installed

Ok, figured it out. Only broke two and one broke putting it back in. Doh!

Even near the washer fluid, that little square hole I used a little tab that came with it and fit and holds perfect.

I was just watching a YouTube video about the 2018 Honda Accord touring model. And guess what I saw, it has those side engine panels on it. So Honda did install them on the accord. I wonder if they also installed them on the civic touring model? Either way I am just waiting for mine to come in because I think Honda should’ve just put them on all their cars so they didn’t look incomplete. As you can see in this picture of the accord sport touring engine bay.

Just got mine in. Here are some before and after pics. They are not installed yet, I just sat them in place. I need to clean the engine bay first before I install them. I just wanted to show how it looks like something missing without them

In EU they come as standard. The Amazon ones are not OEM indeed but they are quite close to the original ones but not exactly the same.
