OEM. None of the other bumpers match the lines of the car IMHO.

Bingo. Just looks, wrong *IMO*

Save money and get an oem bumper. Spend the cash you saved and get some JDM blue/yellow(multicolor) fogs!

I always thought about cutting the black molding but wouldnt that just show the crash bar though if your still running TMIC?

My personal favorite is oem bumper with cusco or jdm lip

Will always love the OEM bumper with Cusco lip, IMO so sick and clean.

Both are sick (especially the Varis one on your car sir

) But IMO flow much better with the 06-07's.

I personally like the OEM front bumper with a Cusco lip as well. I also like OEM front bumper with STi side splitters, fog lights, and V-limited lip combo.

Zerosport makes it look like a Civic FTL, unless you have a big FMIC up front.

I don't mind this lip with the OEM bumper (Seibon):
