i bought my civic and found the top of the bar behind the rear bar had rusted away. i went to honda and they couldent get it even if they could it was £250. so i got my mate to make me 1 out of stainless. its made from thicker metal so is stiffer then the factory 1 too.He said if any 1 wants 1 hes happy to make them up £100 each
he said reduced rate if there is bulk buy.
heres a pic of my old 1 and the new 1 he made me.

let me know if your interested

great job!

That's crazy how the bar rusted like that. Is the rest of the car rust-free?

Might have been easier to just cut the rusted part out, and weld a larger diameter tube/sleeve onto the existing bar...but hey... your solution is much more elegant... !

Does the EK9 rear bumper bar fit other EKs? eg EK4/3. As I would be interested, but not sure how these fit, anyone have a pic of fitment?

Thanks

they will fit an ek4, the part of chassis that it slides into on ek4 is covered with 2 metal caps that are welded on from factory but quite easy to remove with chisel and hammer or 5 min job with angle grinder
