your opinion has been taken in and disregarded. ANYWAY, there was a post by HT member MASE on how to do the conversion. it seems that getting the radiator support done by a professional,then doing the rest yourself(all bolt on) is probably the best way to go.

I'm doing the JDM conversion myself... the new radiator support wasn't that hard to do... The only problem that im having are all these little brackets and supports. IMO the JDM conv. looks clean and best of all its OEM Honda if you need help feel free to hit me up

just remember, once you get started, theres no turning back.

youre going to spend thousands on parts alone, and several hours of labour. A good body shop will charge top dollar so consider these things as well. another 6-800 dollars in labour is a hefty tab.

good luck
