Default 5th Gen. Factory Bumpers

Will the factory bumper from a 96-97 model fit on a 94-95 model?
Has anyone performed or know someone that's done the swap? Thanks

that lip can be put on a 96-7. just need to drill a couple of holes. i believe nizmugen has done it and i've seen a picture of another 96-7 accord w/it.

Tried it with a 97 bumper on a 94 Accord and it did not work. The seam between the bumper and the lights was all wrong. On a side note: anyone want to buy a 97 rear bumper?

i've done it on my 96 accord. It's more than drilling a couple of holes, u have to cut some of the plastic. i'll post pics later.

didn't know that, thanks for the info. another thread about this said the only change is drilling holes.

pics would be helpful in deciding if i'll do the mod.
