Rear will fit no issues - you may have to remove the number plate holder.

Front will need some spacing

Seen this for sale on DoneDeal. As Gizmo said, that's from a CR-X. Just source a Civic one and you'll be grand. Hope you did well in your mocks. Did the Leaving Cert 2 years ago. Much easier than the mocks!
