Default OK, another ONE-PIECE fiberglass front end question. JDM?

I would have put this in competition, but i have a feeling i may get a more accurate answer here, so here we go...

I'm ready to go purchase a one-piece fiberglass front end... the time has come and i've got the money, but.... If I'm gonna do this, i wanna go the whole 9 yards. Does ANYONE make a one-piece front end modeled after the JDM integra front end? Never thought about this until today so I'm on the lookout again. If anyone can help me out I'd really appreciate it. Thanks

-Erik

if you want to go the whole 9 yards, get the real deal. sheet metal and all. nothing beats OEM.

i believe he is referring to a "one-piece front end". the ones that u have to take the whole front end off to gain access to the engine bay. anyhoo, check out c-speedracing.com and ask if they have one or know of someone who can hook u up. they did a one piece fiber glass front end for their civic project.

EMail sent... we'll see how this goes. Thanks for the reference... did not know anything about this site.

I emailed cpseed as well. I'm figuring I will get at least one response, it's just a matter of how long it will take.

Thanks for your help... if anyone else can help let me know.

This is a drag car that i drive on the weekends to shows, races, or just for fun. It's 100% streetable assuming I cut out the front end for headlights and blinkers.

As far as safety goes, I've got a custom 10 point chromoly cage welded in and i have 5 point harnesses on my seats. As far as the car's well being if in a wreck, I can only hope for the best. Chances are, if I got in a wreck on the street it would be from me getting rear ended since I drive EXTREMELY cautiously in this car when on the street.

Still looking for more on my question if anyone can help. Thanks

-Erik

I'm thinkin it was doing alot better in the Integra forum... but whoever moved it felt differently and I can cope with that... Out of courtesy I won't repost it in the Integra or Integra Type R forum...

Now if only someone would stumble on it in here...
