hey guys i was just wondering is the 94-95 front end exactly interchangable with 96-97... i think the hoods are differnt but im also geting a new hood... reason im asking is becaus im getting a new front end... and i like the 94-95 front bettter.. i have a 96... well i dunno its a hard decision.. what do you guys think.. if its not compleatly interchangable i'll just stay with 96

 

Should be, don't see why it wouldn't

 

If you mean the bumper covers, yes...the only difference in the hoods is that the 94-95 has an h emblem on it. I think the grill is different too..

 

Headlamps and fenders are the same on all 4cylinder varients.
The difference is in the front bumper fascia and hood

1) Parking lights are smaller on the 94-95
2) Different treatment below the lower grill opening.
3) Honda emblem mounts to hood on 94-95
4) Honda emblem mounts to upper grille on 96-97

They will interchange as far as bolting up.

The six cylinder varient is entirely different (front end is longer to accomodate the v6)

ok cool.. so what do you guys think i should do... how would you think it looked to have 96 bumper wiht 94-95 hood so i can keep the H and 94-95 grill..

 

any input asap would help... i ned to get down to the shop befor they buy parts... also do you think it'll be cheaper if i got sum 94-95 parts or the same... im getting a whole front end replaced w/ hood and all front lights.. for 1800$ good deal? ?

 

I went with the clean look on my 96 front end.
A 96 hood, 96 bumper (could use 95 bumper if you like it better), 94-95 grille.
This gives you a front end with no badging. I couldn't stand the crome trimmed grille on my 96 so I swapped it with a 94-95 grille I bought from the dealer and had it painted to match the car.

 

well i went to the shop got a 96 bumper with 94 hood and grill... also getting the grill painted same color as car... im happy i got the 94 hood so i can keep my H... gotta love the H...

 

94-95>96-97

OEM grill looks like an R32 GTR

 

which one the 94-95? i like that one.. =] no chrome and it has a nice rounder cool guy look =] gotta love stock beauty

 

95. better looking stock EX alloys, better stock lips, front grill easy for making diy type r, 1 peiece tail lights and most important of all OBD1.

suckiness is the ugly antenna

 

i love the lip on the 94-95...as well as those super swanky 7 spoke EX rims. the 94-95's def look more racy than the 96-97...but i think the latter is much more dignified and classy than the previous..
the chrome accents everywhere.. and i LOVE the 96-97 grille. that chrome H on the grille looks great..
but i hate the H on the hood on the 94-95. i think it looks very out of place.

 

i have a 97 and am planning on going the type-R style grill from T.A.S. and then doing jdm black lenses up front. i do like the 94-95 front grill but @ $50 plus paint i can't really argue with the type-R. the bumper lenses are larger on the 96-97's.

 

94-95 love the look of my 95

 

hmm i like the 96-97's front end.. the 94-95 lip is nice.. but i like teh 96 blinkers.. they look more like the itr front end since they are longer..... as for the rear end.. i dont like the design of the one peice breaks.. it makes the trunk look to big..i think the 2 peice give the rear a bit more charactor.. its hard to say whos is better cuz both has pros and cons.. wheni get my car back i can do sum befor/ after pics hehe
