Default civic 99 front conversion

hey i drive a 97 EK, and i did a 99 front conversion but it has some gaps between the headlight and bumper and it dont look all that clean. i baught 99 everything(hood,bumper,fenders,grill,headlights) except the 99 bumper support and radiator core support. do i have to buy those things to make it look clean or did i juss do a shitty job? you cant really see the gap from the picture but up close u could

i believe when you do the conversion, you need to replace the radiator support

you dont have to or need to change your radiator support when you change your 97 ek front end to 99 ek front...try to adjust your bumper support...this should help u kill the cap...

for a proper, clean fit, yes, you must replace the radiator support. However, ive seen a pic or two of someone that didnt, and he ghetto rigged some **** very well to the point where it was solid and there were no gaps, ie looked stock.
