Question Are the base & Sport rear bumpers the same?

Here's why. I'm a proponent of using the OEM molded mud flaps. I know because of the kit, the fronts are a definite no but the rear bumpers look the same and I could have swore i saw a red Sport on our lot with rear OEM mud flaps.

Thank you in advance,
Des

Oh good. I'll order a set this week so i can install once the car is back from getting hand controls installed. I haven't driven the car YET guys. I'm going crazy. Hate asking for rides...lol. I have a days worth of parts to add/swap out.

Again, thank you. That was an expeditious reply.

Yes! its the same. Only can get mud flaps on the rear of the Fit. None available for the front.

Do they sell the OEM mud flaps for the rear separately? I thought you had to buy the set. I'd buy just the rears.


As mentioned the rears work, but the front flaps don't unless you want to remove the side trim. No one's neatly modified the fronts to work with the sports trim.
