Default Ho Ho Ho // Pot Head Thinking Question.

I was pondering, since the eg and the del sol are related
frame wise ( so i heard )
Is it possible to fit del sol fenders, hood, front bumper, and headlights
on my eg?

it probably won't work

From what I remember it is not a direct bolt on.

I've seen a few Sols with Civic front ends, so I'm sure a reverse swap is just as possible.

It would be sweet to get the middle fog lights on an EG

No it wouldn't.

I think the EG front looks way better than the Del Sol front(any year)

Default Re: Ho Ho Ho // Pot Head Thinking Question. (Pho Real)

that's true
but i want to be unique.
*THE STORY*
Someone hit and run my EG, now my front end is all f*ck'd
My friend is parting out his del sol.
And he said he would give me the front clip minus motor
So maybe i won't have to buy an eg hood, fenders, bumper, and headlights.

Are you sure the eg front end is WAYY better then the delly?

I am sure, the del sol front looks like it is missing something......

The EG front flows awesome with the EG body.... mostly because it was designed that way.

It's all a matter of preference really. I'd take the del Sol front end over any EG front end anyday...but there are people who feel the opposite. I realize that del Sols are not really respected on this board, but yeah, I LOVE the del Sol front end.

Also, a little insite on this, the front will bolt up, the fenders need to be done custom (mate the front half of del sol fenders with the rear parts of civic fenders, that is the only really hard part, after that it all bolts up.
