Yes it should.. I was told that the rear wng won't fit the U.S. spec ones due to the tailgate is different.. Don't know how true that is but I didn't want to take the 1g gamble..Post pics of your progress...

Yes. By what I have been told, but I am not to sure..I was in the process of getting the wing till the rep told the seller that it won't fit due to Japanese hatch design differ from the US because of different crash rating..To me, the rear hatch looks the same, but I wasn't about to take a $1,000 gamble and to see if it fits...

as long as you get the full bumper replacement kit, it should fit.

The lip kit won't fit to the USDM bumper. I have this confirmed by Wald USA.

The fabulous kit, if I'm not mistaken, is a full bumper replacement kit ,front and rear.

dont think that kit will fit a 98 because it is for the earlier models with 4 doors...the 98 and up have sliding right? and if its full bumpers then you should just be able to fit it with removal of the crash bar

RA's were 95-98
99 is when ody's became huge with sliding doors

typerfans stated that the lip kit won't fit the usdm bumper, and states it's confirmed by wald usa. the thread starter is asking about a fabulous product. last i knew, wald and fabulous were separate companies.

what would make sense is that someone from fabulous said it wouldn't fit, but that's not what was stated.

By what I have been told, I would need to modify it extensively and I have no background working with fiberglass. With a $1,000 price tag, plus I need to pay someone to make it fit, it is not really worth it for me on a 10 year old van. I am though in the process of trying to get a civic Ek wing to fit with little modifications..And the best thing is that the wing was for free..

Some test fit pics..The angle seems to steep.It'll be angled down more hortizontal.. I had my daughter hold it it place while I took the pics to get a rough idea on how it would look.

And not it won't be carbon. I will try and use fibergalss to extend where i I have to.. If I screw up, oh well. Atleast I tried. I'd rather guinea pig this wing that a $1,000 one and screw up... :'(
