im about to install a jdm front end on my 96 integra and i wanted to know if i would need anything other than the fenders/hood/bumper/rad support... if anyone has a good site or thread about this install it would be great, thanks

 

search. its wonders.

 

i know you gotta cut some metal piece off the frame part.

 

Don't know the actual thread but the conversion is pretty easy to do, I just did mine. Just do a search for jdm conversion and theres a couple good "how to" on doing it. One involving cutting the radiator support and the other involving removing the entire radiator support.

bumper, radiator support, hood, fenders, grill, headlights

you can do either one

 

just do the t bar. just drill out the old one and weld in the new one. alot easier.

 

not only is T-bar better its more reliable ive known atleast 2 pplz that did the whole rad support and the welds end up getin re-weld

the t-bar way you can keep your lower welds
