Yeah, there was one vendor who had them advertised for the 8th. I sent them a few emails asking about the 9th and didn't receive a response. I take that as a no.

I'll keep looking. There must be some around in North America as well.

After a few searches, I came across a site that sells them for our generation Civics.

They offer free shipping to those of you south of the border. I've sent an email to find out how much to Canada. If shipping isn't too much, I'd definitely try these.

I also found a video on the install. Seems easy enough.

I heard it only works on non si models though? Can someone verify?

 

[ADExternal]

Between the two models for chassis and the hood, there is no difference in structure. So if it works for the R18, it works for the SI models
