It's called a "CONVErSION" it's not goin t bolt right up, your goin to have to get it fitted to the car, I did a 2004 Celica Front End conversion on my 95 sol.. Currently gettin the pieces together to do a saleen s7 front end/body modification to the car. GOOD LUCK!

I just did this on my 95 sol. There is a tutorial on this let me search.

EDIT, here you go man.
http://www.teamdelsolwa.com/howto.html
its #5 on that list, you might get some use out of the other links as well. good luck.
The only tip I can give you is start from the sides of the bumper and work your way to the center. You can line it up better.

the only real difference is in the bumper with the del sol, its different entirely with the civics I belive.

You may be able to bolt up a 92-95 civic front end with little to no modification but I cant remember 100% right now, I think you may have to drill a few holes in the fender to mount it properly.

make it look good yourself, take a dremel tool, cut out the cetner grill thing, and put a home dept grill in there. THats what i did, and it cleaned it up SOOOO much. But i painted hte grill the same color as the car (it was on when the bumper was painted but looks good)

Nothign looks better than OEM

then i believe you should get the correct lip to do this

i have seen quite a few places actually make lips specifically for the del sol, try searching on google or ebay.
you can also try any del sol forumn, you'll probably get more help there. the only thing is it might take a while since they don't get as much traffic.
