ok, ive heard about it and now ive actually seen it done, i want to convert my stock del sol front end to a 2000 civic si front end

i have a full 2000 civic si front(hood, both fenders, bumper, lights, grill, lip, fog lights)....except for the radiator support....do i need a 2000 civic si radiator support to do the conversion, or could i just use my oem radiator support

yes!!

 

yes it can be done...there is a picture floating around here somewhere...just search for it

 

i dont like it... jus looks Odd...but thats jus me

need a 2000 civic si radiator support

 

the trick is in the fenders.. the ek ones don;t fit by the door.. i think they cut the tip of the ek fender and mate it with the del sol fender to amke a hybrid fender..

i own a del sol and im agiast this idea but its your car..

you going to get alot of hate post..

 

 

there is a post right below this one bout the same thing

i dont have pics of the car finished also this is not my car, this is a car brauning motorsports put together</TD></TR></TABLE>

 

to me i don't like front end converstions its a del sol not a 2000 si. but whatever floats your boat i just know its takes a lot of modding to get that front end to fit

 

everything is good on that grey del sol except the front end

 

Why did they swap the 96-98 front end? They should have went with the 99-00 if they were going to do that at all....

sorry but
96-98 &gt; 99-00

 

i wouldnt do it IMHO it's just a way of taking 2 potentially nice cars and turning them into one nasty misfit car

 

why go thru all that trouble to just put another ugly front end on there

99-00&gt;96-98=ugly as ****

 

is it just me or were their 3 del sol conversion posts in the past 2 weeks? stop doing this, please, im dying on the inside. it looks absoluteley horrendous. this is the most ricer/stupid/gheyest thing ive ever seen. plus on such a nice car. five lug, nice paint, why the new front end? its like putting a bentley front end on a ferrari. two nice cars, but they sure as hell wont look good together. how does this look good to anyone?? it doesnt flow at all

I was gonna say the same thing!

I posted like 15 links in a thread about this yesterday. There's no way I'm doing it again. If you can't search....I hope you NEVER get the information you're looking for. I know I'm being a dick...but jesus christ!


Like I said before...there needs to be a Noob "bullshit" forum. And that should be the ONLY place New Jacks should be allowed to post for the first 30 days of membership. They should be allowed to SEARCH, and post in ONE forum only until thier trial period is over. That way, if knowledgable people want to help some new guys out....they can go into THAT forum and do so. Keep this bullshit out of tech forums.

/end rant.

 

so do you have to cut the fenders also when you are putting a ek front on a eg?

Absolutely.

The cutout on the Civic fender won't match the outer A pillar of the Del Sol's body.

 

i think it looks way better than a del sol front end
