Default jdm sedan front end fitting on a crx?

I was just wondering what kind of modification would be necessary to get this jdm sedan front end onto a crx, would it be too much work to be worth doing?

anything is possible if u got dough??

yeah u can fit our sedan front ends on the Rex u would just need to cut out the hood a bit as the headlights are a bit wider and the filler would be required and to be cut to fit a crx front

the fenders might need to be bend in a bit too but not sure about that

hope this helps

the JDM front end on a sedan is the exact same as the sedan here in the US except for the hood

You mean different fenders, diffeent hood, different headlights.

The only thing that's the same is the bumper..and I could argue that it's different because of the molding.

punch yourslef in the face for saying that!

in no way are the USDM front and JDM fronts the same or even identical....for one the hood is way longer and the lights that come with the JMD front end are 1 piece! the fenders too are about an inch longer and yes the bumpers are almost the same!
How do i know?

i have the JDM front end on my 4 door!

SO do some research buddy before you start spreading misinformation.

BTW i dont think it would be too hard to do it on a hatch. just t ale your time and do it right!
