Default Need help finding a front cover

ok i need help on finding a good looking bumper cover because mine is cracked and torn and scuffed and a little bit beyond repair , and also i want to install fog lights because we have some decent fog arounf here so they are going to be functional, heres i pic (before it got all messed up) , i dont really like most body kits (most are too "extreme") i want something that looks good but is also functional (doesnt cause a snowplow effect when driving in winter months) and i might install a nice clean lip kit later on

Any junkyards close by?
Or an aftermarket OEM style replacement, cheaper but it will need paint.

I know, thanks Mr. Obvious.

no junkyards within a 80 mile radius (im in a s***hole). What are some websites that i can get them from?? ive looked around but all i get is body kits, also is it possible to install a 99-00 front cover i know the lights are different but arent they about the same on the bottom??

Actually ebay has some really good bumpers that are OE but less than OEM prices. You could probably pick up a bumper and a lip on ebay for the price of a replacement bumper from the dealer (maybe even less).

You could also get your foglights there too and just have everything installed all at the same time.

Ebay is your best bet other than a stealership. The thing that they try to get you with on ebay though is the bumper will be like 55$ but the shipping is well over 100$. I personally went to the stealership to get my rear bumper just for the sake of being able to put it on same-day.

I got my front end replacement parts from Keystone Automotive. It's an aftermarket OEM place. The parts were about a third of the dealer, but you can't beat beat OEM stuff for quality and fit either. But if you don't even have a junkyard closeby you may not have one of those.

Call the yards first and see what they have, 80 miles in a Civic sure beats $100 shipping.
