Transfering 2018 civic hatchback sport rear bumper to 2018 civic hatchback ex cvt

[y4phets4]

Hello new member here, I recently purchased 2018 civic hatchback ex, but recently I wanted to replace stock bumper with sports bumper, so I can put center dual exhaust in middle. Does sports rear bumper fit the ex model? Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Even if it does, I feel like you might have issues with fitting the exhaust system. I'm not familiar with the underbody of the non-sport hatches (nor can i find pictures), but the underbody of the sport looks like this:

with specific cutouts and mounting points for the center exhaust.

EDIT: found this video:


It looks like you might run into issues with the fuel tank and (maybe) the hanging points.

It's explained a bit more why you can't and an alternative in this thread.

you can but you won't be able to go straight thru you'll have to go around then go back to the middle towards the end
