I wouldn't do it if you like the ek front buy an ek


it would be expensive if you wanted it to look clean and if you wont pay the money to do it right it will look like *** IMO Sorry Im just not really into conversions. If you dont like the bumper find one out there that you do like its not like there is not a million different ones out there to choose from.

My thoughts exactly! I know you said you're not looking for opinions on how it owuld look. But, why waste money on such a project when you could probably have one bad-a$$ Ek or Eg with that cash?

because and ek hatch is ugly and an eg hatch is pretty, now take an eg hatch and put an ek front clip, on it and you have those nice big headlights and the smooth cruves of an EG hatch. I've been thinking about this for a long time...

trust me i would of never have gone through the trouble except for the fact that my car was stolen and stripped!! i bought the shell back from the insurance company for $800!! and while towing it home, the front snapped in half!! this was the only reason why i decided to do it because my buddy had a 99 si front end.
