What's needed to do this EG front end conversion ?
I believe the bumper is a mugen one and the headlights of course is those of an INTEGRA JDM *ONE PEICE HEADLIGHTS* 97-2000 as far as the fenders goes he did custom body work *I THINK* there's a whole article on it just go to superstreetonline.com go to features cars SELECT on CIVICS and you'll see the whole article on it.
he was selling that hatch too, but beside the point i hope this helps you somewhat.
good luck. just a thought why don't you try the PRELUDE 97-2k converstion JDM *ALSO ONE PEICE* since he already made it why don't you do something different.
FELIX

although that is a very nice photo...its quite tasteless to do that...id laugh at someone to their face if i saw that in person...the fenders where cut and welded back together to the ITR pieces...and supposedly the guy used a *real* mugen bumper...i read super street when i take *****, so i know every article...

a lack of good taste.
if you guys think that is tasteless and looks bad.....i dont even wanna know what your stunna rides look like. sure, its a "conversion" and thats obviously not "OEM" looking.....but that doesnt mean it doesnt or cant look bad, and i think that particular civic looks nice with that front end.
Check this sh*it out ........
What parts are needed to do this conversion ( i.e which car do the hood , fenders , bumber come from )

Yeah guys. That car is so nice looking. If you're knocking the JDM conversion on that, it's the same thing with Integra's doing it.
They're all Honda's, same thing.
I wish I had a car that looked like that. There is no tasteless wing, needless stickers, outrageous body kit, etc.
Clean, and probably quick too from the IC that I see.

i think it looks pretty clean... BUT those lights arent DOT approved so you'll most liekly be getting some nice tickets.
and if its like the integra conversion, then you'll be losing your bumper too.

They may not be DOT approved, but who's gonna know the difference as long as you don't put some ghey blue bulbs in it.

dont know what you guys are talking bout but that **** is hella clean and that is the cleanest eg hatch out there right now.. clean and simple.. the engine could do better but what can i say... he bags groceries

Personally I wouldn't do that, people that know me that I tend to lean towards a clean somewhat stock look that sits really low, but I have to give it up because they body work is pretty damn good. The paint appears flawless and the conversion looks clean.
.... at least it isn't ghetto (let me remind you guys again, that its not my style, but the car is well done)

from the looks of it youd have to get the jdm lights, mugen bumber, looks like you would have to mod the fenders, bondo, smooth out,repaint etc... and of course rigging up the lights and bumper to fit properly. a good body shop would have no problem doing this.
I don't know how you could not like this.....it's not stock but it's clean enough to be. If this car came from the factory like this everyone of the haters would love it. Quit bein so wrapped up in the anti-rice b.s. and realize that modification can still be tasteful
seriously, does that thing get cleaner as time goes by? damn! the first time i saw i pic of the in a mag i couldn't stop lookin at it. just did the same thing for like 5 min. very clean!
I am so ******* tired of the h-t.com people dissing everything that isn't JDM!!! Trust me, I hate rice more than anyone, as a matter of fact I don't care much for anything that isn't for performance. But this car looks nice as hell! When I saw it in Super Street, which isn't my favorite but I read all the import mags, I was like DAMN. Now, would I pay the thousand of dollars in labor and parts and wait the two years(!) to have that done to my car? Hell no. But I can look at it and not fly into a ricer rage. That guy has sone tight **** in that car, like a Drag turbo kit on a ported and polished D16 and a full USDM type R interior. Everybody assumes that conversions are rice, but I must disagree.
