99 teg bumper on 94 teg... does it work?
I was thinking about buying an LS and rebuilding the engine entirely, so it would be pointless for me to buy a newer integra, so I decided to buy a 94.
However, I like the front bumper on the later style (97+ right?) and so I was thinking of just buying that bumper and putting it on my 94... is this possible? Are the headlights the same?
Also, do the bumper lenses switch over?

are you sure the headlights are not the same?
Its not worth doing the switch, unless you're just wanting newer cosmetics... personally I like the 94-97 look, wasn't into the 98+ buldging duckbill look.

I like the 98+ headlights way better, they always look cleaner and more crystal clear than 94-97 lights.
You also need the bumper lense brackets if the bumper doesn't already come with them.

i don't like the 94-97 because of the headlights and corners.. they look... dirty is the only word that comes to mind.. i dunno.
Ok 94 - 97 headlights are not slanted as much.
98 has more of a oval look to them. Reason is because people complained about snow getting stuck in the holes on the 94 - 97 integras.
So to answer your question.
You need new headlights, bumper lense brackets, bumper lenses, and bumper to do the conversion. The foam is just an option. It will help if you hit someone goiing like 5 mph any faster and theres no point.

My headlights aren't fogged, but the reflection on the chrome rings around the headlights don't look as sharp as they do on 98-01 lights
Hey I wonder if anyone has ever thought of painting those rings? If you take the headlight apart they attach to the clear lens w/ screws....

Your car, just like mine is a 94... UNLESS you took your lights out, and baked them for five minutes at 350 degrees... thus allowing you to separate the seal. THEN professionally polishing both the exterior and the interior of the lens. THEN reassembling the ENTIRE THING, including re-sealing... Your lights are fogged... Period.

I say no doubt about it do the conversion much cleaner. You will need all those stuff mention above. Its a simple thing to do and the newer model just looks better

Seems like another newbie is trying to get a bad rep... when you see this car EVERY weekend... maybe I do know it... Want a hammer for yourself?
