Default 2000 EK front on a 94 del sol?

ok, ive heard about it and now ive actually seen it done, i want to convert my stock del sol front end to a 2000 civic si front end

i have a full 2000 civic si front(hood, both fenders, bumper, lights, grill, lip, fog lights)....except for the radiator support....do i need a 2000 civic si radiator support to do the conversion, or could i just use my oem radiator support

the trick is in the fenders.. the ek ones don;t fit by the door.. i think they cut the tip of the ek fender and mate it with the del sol fender to amke a hybrid fender..

i own a del sol and im agiast this idea but its your car..

you going to get alot of hate post..

Why did they swap the 96-98 front end? They should have went with the 99-00 if they were going to do that at all....

I was gonna say the same thing!

I posted like 15 links in a thread about this yesterday. There's no way I'm doing it again. If you can't search....I hope you NEVER get the information you're looking for. I know I'm being a dick...but jesus christ!


Like I said before...there needs to be a Noob "bullshit" forum. And that should be the ONLY place New Jacks should be allowed to post for the first 30 days of membership. They should be allowed to SEARCH, and post in ONE forum only until thier trial period is over. That way, if knowledgable people want to help some new guys out....they can go into THAT forum and do so. Keep this bullshit out of tech forums.

/end rant.

Absolutely.

The cutout on the Civic fender won't match the outer A pillar of the Del Sol's body.
