Front spoiler "

I dont see it either. Maybe the diff grill? Or there could be a diff piece under the bumper.

The Si has a body-colored grille in place of the EX's black one. However, I still don't see a front/chin spoiler, nor have I yet to notice a difference in that regard between the Si and EX Coupe. Probably, it's just erroneous, and a pre-production piece of info that did not pan out.

Then why are you wasting your time posting here? I like the '06 RSX Type S too, but that doesn't reduce me to making idiotic statements, why does it have that effect on you?

Found It! - If you have a 06 civic coupe/si brochure, look at the last page that show the colors available. Look closely at the Habenero Red bottom then glance directly below to the Galaxy grey & you'll notice the difference. The black plastic is "broken up" on the si, while the coupes is a one piece.

LoL, jack monkey... =)

well you're welcome to your opinion, but it's irrelevant to this thread and is obviously only included to try to 'stir things up'.

If you see direct relavance between your anti-Civic Si opinion and front bumpers, do share.

I saw a enlarged pic of the EX, its also split. So far the only diff I noticed in the front is the Si color matched grill.

i see!! lol...what on earth is the purpose of that? Is there more to it than what we can see in the brochure...i mean is there some functionality difference between the 2? From the pics in the brochure it just looks cosmetic and even then it's not really noticeable unless you're looking under the bumber.

Help, I'm blind, I can't see any diff. between the red & gray pics above. 8) The only diff. I noticed is on the front grille on the big pic at the top of the thread. It's body-colored on the Si and black on the EX. What else?

The small wind deflector beneath the bumper is in 3 pieces on the Si, one by each wheel, and a long center piece, whereas the Ex has a continous rubber wind deflector. It is very subtle, and it took me a few seconds to notice it even while knowing it was there. Someone has sharp eyes!
