We purchased this 2001 Honda S2000 last year and have been fixing issues since. Everything has almost been resolved aside from this front bumper. It obviously doesn't align and the color match is off. Does anyone have recommendations on an aftermarket sports bumper? Also I have adjusted the bumper the best I can to get it aligned.

 

Why not fit an OEM bumper? And headlights?

Yeah, I'm open to that. I just want to keep the sports theme going on with the current set up. I'll have to do some more research.

 

Fenders also seem to aftermarket so that might need to be replaced as well.

 

The previous owner mentioned that he had the fenders rolled but nothing about those being aftermarket. I may start with a new front bumper then see how it goes.The ones I attached seemed to be decent.

 

The fenders look off. They are way to wide regardless of what they are. Any bumper you get is going to have the same fitment on the outer sides where the fenders jut out past the bumper. The rest of the fitment issues just look like they are from a cheap knock off bumper.

Edit: the picture showing the damage to one of the fenders makes it looks like they aren't metal fenders. Factory are metal. Either that fender has had some very poor body work done to it in that area, or it's not factory.

 

I agree that the bumper is a cheap knock off combined with some crappy body work. Would you recommend a new front bumper with upgraded fenders? Any suggestions? I'm open to the upgrade.

 

All aftermarket body parts for all cars everywhere have fitment issues.

That goes for aftermarket stock style body replacements as well as performance body replacements.

Its just reality. OEM parts bolt on, aftermarket not so much.

Higher quality means less radical effort to get adequate fit. Often more expensive parts save money overall bc less labor cost. Obv doesn't apply if diy.

Buying either of the examples posted might not fit any better outta box than what you have now.

 

I absolutely appreciate all the input. I love this car, it has been a fun project. I just want to iron out the small imperfections. Thank you again.

 

Both front and rear fender's have been flared out. Compare your car to factory body lines around the wheel arches.

You have a little more than bad fitting front bumper.
