front end integra swap
i have a 92 dx hatch and a totalled 94 integra gsr that i'm pulling the b18 out of, and i'm thinking of doing an entire front end bumper and pussibily fender swap. i was just wondering if anyone here has ever done it, and if so, any advice, or pics? i'm going to do it myself, and i'm just mainly wondering if you used the integra hood?(will it fit on my civic?) or if you just shaved the integra bumper so it'll fit, and if you used the integra fenders or just cut your civic ones?
thanks

why?
just take the motor and sell the rest.

Re: front end integra swap (civicmark)
as far as i know it doesn't just bolt right up. you have to take your civic and integra fenders cut them both in half weld the two different fenders together so that you know have the integra front on your civic fenders. then you have to weld you integra radiator mount onto the front of your civic. i think thats about it. but like somebody said before it really doesn't look that good. i have seen one in person and there is just something about it that doesn't look right. but on the other hand a JDM ITR front end on a hatch now that looks really good.

kwil is right
just cut the fenders then weld them on, then take integra radiator supopprt and bolt those in and then the rest should bolt in if i''m not mistaken

Re: front end integra swap (KoRE)
would the integra fenders just bolt right? I'm not sure if i'm up for the welding, but if not, i guess i'll have to have a shop do it

Re: front end integra swap (HYBRID EG6)
it all bolts right up but it looks like *** in my opinion but thats my 2cents
94+ integra hood
94+ integra fenders (2 both sides)
94+ integra headlights
94+ integra corner lights
94+ integra radiator support
94+ integra bumper (metal bumper)
94+ integra bumper cover
and some time and patience..
and you asked for some pics. i used to have some of a 96 coupe w/ the conversion done but cant find the pics now and also a 5gen hatch painted itr yellow w/ a b18c5 and itr suspension .. here is a 5gen hatch and i personally think it looks very good and unique..
there are a couple people that have done and said its not worth it and some others taht really like it a lot.. i personally am going to do it to my civic after i have the b18c1 engine to back up the looks of the car

i've seen that swap before and it looked like a$$. but that one looked hella good. but again, if you wanna look like an INT, go buy one.

Re: front end integra swap (ED6)
i picked up the integra, the entire back half was totaled, from a junk year for around $1,500 + about 100 to get it towed to my house. as for swapping the dash goes, i've heard that you'd have to cut it to get it into my civic, yes or no? and i am going to swap out the front seats.
