acouple diff. front end conversions for eg6.
i have never seen a 5g hatch w/ jdm front end.... but... thinking about doing a ek front end w/ 99-00 front bumper..ctr headlights.. or just black housing. and a CF hood. and of coarse a nice CF lip... (maybe spoon or something in that style)
other idea is a 92-95 del sol front end w/ lip and CF hood. anybody know how hard it would be to get this to work? would a 92-95 del sol stuff bolt up to the 94 hatch? i mean fenders, hood, bumper, head lights, light housing... blah blah blah.?
and don't flame me for this b/c it isn't a jdm conversion.. heh.. i could do a jdm del sol or ek conversion?!? just curious and don't want to deal with kits anymore.. want to do something i don't see every day. thanks

think it would be one of the easyer front end
conversions. One of the uglier to though. Not
really my thing either.

I don't know the details because I havent actually done it but I did research it. The bumper and all the front end stuff should bolt right on. The only tricky part would be modifying the fenders where they meet the bottom of the 'A' pillar and possibly the doors. It wouldn't be too hard to for any decent body shop to modify the sheet metal or you could try to mod it with fiberglass (a little ghetto but you can get good results if you are carefull)
Like I said. I did a little thinking about this but its just too much work for not enough benefit. I spend all my $$$ under the hood
Now a JDM ITR front on a chop top hatch (a-la the Signal Auto drag Civic) would be tight! but if I had that much $$$ to blow I would just buy an S2K

The 92-95 is the best looking Civic front end.
Why don't you put the 92-95 front end on an Integra or EK hatch.
