Hauling a BAMF 2nd Gen Plate Bumper in a 2008 Honda Civic?

Going to pick up my FULL HOOP bumper shortly and wondering if I can do it in my Honda Civic with seats folded down?

Anyone attempted something crazy like this?

I anticipate a lot of skepticism (I am also skeptical), but would be neat if someone has done this exact thing, or similar.

Thanks!

 

Doable pics or never happened.

 

I like a crazy story! Might give it a try but also bring the roof bars.

yeah i've hauled four 2"x16"x20 footers on the roof rack. sturdy little beast that civic

 

Give me a couple ratchet straps, and I could haul it home with a smart car.

 

I'm loving this energy. Might just do it!

But if it doesn't work, it will cost me 5 hours driving and gas.

 

Ever pull a VW Westphelia on a tow dolly with a Tempo 5 speed?

Yeah a Civic can do a bumper

"If it fits, it ships"

 

Maybe with out the hoop, but it would still be tough getting it in the car. Remove the rear window trunk lid and deck/parcel shelf I think it would fit no problem.

 

Might be doable with the trunk lid removed, and you'd still risk tearing up the interior. Rent a U-haul if your own truck is not available.

 

yeah, I think the aperture between the trunk and the cabin is the limiting factor especially with the full hoops. Will take the truck!

 

okay, think drop the rear seats, and flatten the passenger front, think it will fit! pack some towels and cardboard and some blue tape, as packing help and think you're golden... but question 2 is this, you have a Tacoma, what is wrong with the bed for traveling?

 

I keep the taco parked elsewhere, so its a bit of a hassle to get it, plus the mpg of the civic vs. the taco... i know i know.

 

If you can't get it into the trunk or backseat, you could always buy a bunch of pool noodles and strap it to the roof like a kayak.

Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for outcomes of this type of hazardous activity but I have been accused of being the little devil on the shoulder giving advice.

 

oh same. totally understand MPG, this time of year when its cold in the mornings, and i work 15min from home makes me miss 40mpg of my civic. vs the trash that is my tacoma on short trips

 

I support tf out of this. Hell yeah!

 

If my wife can squeeze 4x 33’s in a ‘97 Celica…anything is possible!

 

Where are you picking this BAMF piece up at? Bay Area or Grass Valley? They have moved, or so I understand.

 

Any updates??

 

Pics or never happened.

 

I ended up taking my tacoma up to pick it up. No civic!

I think the bumper would not have fit due to the aperture opening between the cabin and the trunk!

 

yes they are up in grass valley now... which is a long 2.75 hours from where I live. Wasn't expecting that!
