It doesn't work you need the jdm hood or cut your stock one.

Isn't it the little piece between the bumper and the hood and not the bumper proper that dictates the head light shape?

that's only true on a HB, on a CRX, there is no filler piece and you will have to get a new bumper if for a CRX.

just make it look nice when you cut it. i mean, depending on how you cut it it could either look like its meant to be like that or ghetto.

no way man
no matter how you cut it mold it or bend it, a usdm hood will still be ghetto
+ the bumpers are way different shapes. and so manythings wouldnt line up properly.
Just hold out.
save your lute and do it right.
IMHO

i agree, save your money, but i have friends who are really good with a welder and could do that real quick and have it look right. i don't know why, i like the usdm hood more than the jdm. call me weird.

for the hood, what you'd have to do is cut it out farther in than the lights, then weld the bevel or chamfer or whatever you wanna call it on, and have it symmetrical. urethane bumbers? forget about it. fiberglass? with skill, you can do it. for me, too much work i'd rather put into either the engine, chassis, or interior.
