Looks like it has the 2007-2008 front conversion. The fogs don't look like Accord fogs, so it's a dead giveaway.

shotta is correct. It's the 04-06 bumper (smaller grill, and non honeycomb)

Wouldn't be too hard to retrofit.

I would have made a DIY if I bought the Type-S A-Spec =(

look at Youngsta car he did the 07 lip on his 04.

I was gonna go this route. The lip will fit over the 04-06 bumper
with almost no modification. The hard part is fitting the fogs required a lot
of modification. If you dont need the Fogs go for it.
I ended up just getting a 07 Type S front at the end.

Nice pickup!... only problem you're going to have is finding fog lights OEM are like $200 for the pair Depot brand are like $100 and come in smoke light smoke and yellow... I opted to go with my own unique design this time and used to fake Benz fogs (like $30) witch came out very nice...post a pic I sent ya?...
