I have been pondering doing a front end conversion on a 88 CRX. But not like most conversion to the JDM front end, but to see if a DA9 front end would fit... or an civic EG front end would fit. IF so... what mods are needed to make it fit?
(re-aligning bolt holes, mounts, any sort of shaving issues)

I might be picking up that CRX and some custom work has been done, so I'm considering doing the same.

Any help is appreciated, thanks guys!

 

everyone is going to tell you not to do it cause it will look ugly and i agree. but to do it you gota get the whole front off the car you wana use and you also need the radiator support then you weld that on your front and bolt it up and of course your gona run into a bunch more then that like the fenders not matching the doors but thats what custom means more work.

 

If you do a DA I have the front clip of just the chassis if you need it. No bumper support.

 

I dont recommend any front end conversion other than the JDM front. I personally think that its not worth the money, the hassle and it ruins the already great lines of the CRX.

Here's a wonderful conversion for ya. <<vomit>>

I'll give the guy credit for the ingenuity, but its a good way to ruin a good car.

 

if the car was wider id be oke and had a eg rear end id be little more better looking lol

 

one of my buddys brothers has an 90 hatch and he fit a DA front on it and it loks pretty good ill try to get some pics up if he'll let me.. hes also in utah if anyone every seen it its a boosted puke green hatch

 

ive seen a crx with an ek one piece front end w/ working headlights around here about 3 years ago. looked pretty damn good actually, i wouldnt do it though.

 

OP: there isnt a walk through on how to do a conversion like that... its something you have to want to do, and make happen.

if u truly want it done, and want it to look good, you know its going to be a lot of work or a lot of money
