Default Finally finished my 99 00 front end!

So how did I do? All the parts except the grill are aftermarket, the grill I got from honda it's the 00 si grill cost $200! I would say I paid around $600 for everything, you can see there are some issues, near where the bumper and hood meet by the grill but overall im pretty happy with it, I just didnt want to spend $1200 on password JDM. Next step is to get a lip and fog lights and get her washed painted!




Fenders - $200
Hood - $110
Bumper - $115
Lights - $80 (for both)
Grill - $200

Here is a better angle from a week ago before I got the new hood.

From a distance it at least looks like it fits pretty well. Love these front ends.

My friends Si bumper on his fits a lot worse than yours! The guy who put it on had to put in a couple screws to get the fenders to meet up with the bumper! Still looks like junk close up.

Well done.

The hood would fit nicer and more flush if I could remove the damn rubber seal from my old hood, but I gotta buy a new one now

This is my goal picture, you can see it looks like this person has the same issue where the bumper meets the hood near the sides of the grill

CF hoods r ****, just go with a good gloss black metal hood.
gloss black metal trunk
gloss black roof
rest green

matches ur black rims too

to fix the space between the hood and bumper is easy. just requires some modificaton boy.

The grill is what really hurt me cost wise, but I didnt want to go cheap on the grill because I have gotten a cheap grill before and it looked terrible!

UPDATE: My dad helped me and I tweaked it a bit and now its looking better IMO. The gap is going away. I just need to buy a 00 rubber hood seal to close in the spaces, because there is no seal as it is.

K, just ordered the 00 rubber seal and a bunch of clips for $85 off www.hondaautomotiveparts.com, that should help make it look a little better.

I was planning on getting a type-r front and rear lip, would you say the si/ctr is a better choice?

it's the same lip as on the picture of the other midori hatch and that silver civic as well. It's the same lip, CTR stands for Civic Type R.

The front lip is one thing to deffinetely not get a cheap one (knock-off) The OEM one fits perfectly, is much more durable, and the looks are out of this world in comparison to it's knock-off counter part.



there's the knockoff^


there's the real deal^

easy decision if you ask me LOL, well worth the extra jingle
