Yeah I second that setup as well, i think the sedan will look good with a coupe bumper if you were to add in the fog lights. It seems plain for my taste without it.
 
@team could please post these pics in Original post.
I've never been a fan of the R18's lower grill section that big chrome bar makes the car look like it's grinning. I love the coupe bumper on sedan as well as the asian front bumper but with all parts needed and paint on top of that it starts to get pricy. I've alway preferred the 2013 si look better the lower grille/foglight section looks much nicer and aggressive. So I started doing research and found that part #'s for all models are identical. Now I'm not 100% sure but I'm pretty certain I am the first to attempt this modification. I have the Canadian touring edition(EX-L) for you guys in the states so I had the foglight harness and switch already from factory so I've probably save myself close to or maybe more than 200+$. Here's some pics.

This RR kit fit really good. I installed myself with couple helpers. I like projector foglights and F1 style LED lights a lot. It is by far more aggressive look than other body kits out there. When I saw the car after finish, I was like OMG it looks so cool!

All hardware are included also.

I actually just had an accident and insurance is covering everything so I'm trying to replace the destroyed bumper with the si sedan bumper while I have such a good opportunity

U going through insurance. If so just tell the body shop to order the bumper and any extras the insurance company won't cover just buy it. Like u said it's a good opportunity.

Yeah it will be different pieces. All the black trim pieces including the grille come of the bumper
 
Okay I have an emergency question for anybody who can help out. I have a 13 coupe lx, had an accident, and I'm getting a body shop who's working on my car to install an si bumper, but since the si had stock fog lights installed, how can I get the fog lights installed since I got mine without fog lights. Immediate help PLEASE!!!!!
 
I believe that Pauly has a DIY for the fog light install. Also College Hills Honda has a video on how to the install as well....I think.
