Default del sol front end conversions!!!

whats up my fellow honda-technicians

well today i traded one of my many cars that happens to be a 94 ej2, for a 93 del slow with a single cam turbo in it, butttt the front end on the sol is fucked up, aka all the body panels are dented in


so i was thinking about the eg front end, but i know that ***** pretty hard

as far as i know the 96+ civic front end bolts right up, but will both the 96-98 or the 99-00 fit? which one looks better?

thanks

the only front that bolts up is the del sol one...you have to cut/weld/section fenders and a bunch of other stuff...IMO not worth it

which one looks better is your own opinion. nothing except a del sol front end is going to bolt right up, like someone else said. just keep it a del sol.

there ya go...no other front ends will bolt up perfectly...with the conversions, there are cutting and welding to do...but if you're going to do a conversion on your del sol...do the eg front...

The eK front end is the best looking conversion you could do. EG looks gay. Check out these vids of a fast *** EK sol.

None of the front ends bolt right on .... I'm not sure where you got that idea.

Most of the front end conversions involve modifying the core support, and all of them involve cutting the fenders in half. You mate the front half the conversion fender to the rear half of the Del Sol fender.
