Guys and gals,

Put my jdm front end on and for the life of me I am unable to line it up properly. I was wondering if any one could give me some tips on this subject.

Thanks.

 

no tips? tried to line it up by myself couldnt get it right, should i have another body help me out?

 

Ok, I have never installed a JDM front...but I have replaced front ends on many different vehicles. The easiest way I found is to install everything loosly. Meaning put all the bolts in but dont tighten them down. Get everything aligned the way you want them then tighten the bolts down 1 at a time.

Good luck.

yes I second that^^. My crx sir front end went on fine, the bumper lines up just like stock. the headlights I had to shim down a little by putting washers between the headlight and support. If it doesnt line up and there are large gaps your car might have been in an accident and something is bent.

 

i think that is the case, took off the bumper today and looks to be damage on the passenger side, i think i can line it up right if i get a longer bolt.
