Would the front and rear fit into a Honda Civic Hatchback Sport 2020?
The front fits, but I know 2020 has Honda Sensing which is a slight issue. There is a mod to get it to work on these forums, I'll let you know when i find it (somebody may beat me to it, but there's definitely a yes to that).

I went in to get my front grille checked out because the clips popped out, but the service tech told me that I would need a full front bumper replacement to get it fixed. The grille was not the issue, but the top half of that bumper is the problem.

I'm debating if I want to go this Type R style route, or just get an OEM front bumper and call it a day lol.

Really tempting though.

This video has a fix to the grille popping out, he mentions buying some small pieces of aluminum to put in place on the upper bumper tabs.

I have also had both bumpers. Abs is by far a better CTR bumper, but SoCal accessories bumper is cool of you get quick release tabs to fix the panel gaps on the edges.

I watched the video as well, but my front bumper where the clips attach to, broke due to "outside" force. I was so pissed at the service department.
But I'm glad to know the ABS CTR style bumper works just fine. Eventually I'll get it, but thankfully the grille isn't loose.

I just did my abs dynamics one and didn't have to mess with the crash bar. You do have to trim the grille tab inserts above the crash bar though (I guess thats what they mean?)
Mine is a. 2017 coupe, for reference

I just joined this Forum and I found this thread. I purchased the Iconmotorsports Type R bumper for my son's 2017 Civic EX. I had the bumper painted to the car color which cost about $300 in my area. I then wrapped the bumper a matte black (along with the rest of the car) hence the color difference between the pics.
The quality of the bumper was good, there is a difference in type of plastic Icon uses as apposed the the OEM, but it painted well. There was a small panel fit issue with passenger side fender. Nothing big but about 3/32" protrusion of the bumper to the fender. It was very easy to install and I would encourage anyone who wants to spice up the look, I would suggest this upgrade. It really changed the entire look of the car.
