i dont think it'll fit. i know the 99-00 headlights are slightly diff than the 96-98, and i think this difference causes the bumpers, etc to not fit right. im not positive on this but if i were you i wouldn't buy your friends front clip yet.

Exactly, because all people that own civics or non type-r's are thieves that would take the shirt off of your back. In fact, I stole my friends shirt the other day.

Steal a front end for replacement? Aren't there any junkyards in your area? Or bodyshops? Death to thieves!

I wish people would stop saying "you need to change the radiator support" - where the **** did you morons here this in the first place? Obviously you didn't do the conversion yourself or you would know that you don't have to touch the radiator support. Stupid *****.
