97 to 00 front end install
I have a 97 civic ek and bought a '00 front end...I have the hood, lights and fenders on but not the bumper/grill...I know some minor modifications need to be done in order for it to fit right...I havent done it before so I dont want to mess up. So if you have done this conversion yourself already and can do mine, ill pay you...pm me your price. need done asap. thanks. located in Rancho Cucamonga, CA

there's nothing to mess up. fenders and hood fit the same. Front bumper cover, notch the back of the bumper and you'll be fine. There's two plastic tabs that will interfere with the 97 radiator support, but if you notch it'll slide right over.
Test fit and you'll see what I'm talking about. Good luck. BTW, this topic has been covered numerous times. Search.

I actually already bought 99 EX front and rear bumpers...
I just wanted to switch bumpers... DO I gotta do all that other crap as well??

bumper, fenders, hood, grill, headlights.
the following are optional but will help it to fit better.
rad. support, headlight supports, those brackets that hold the fenders.

all you need to do is cut a little of the bumper mount on the core support and re drill a hole for the clip to go in. its simple everything else just bolts right on.
