Default Del Sol Front end conversion....

I'm looking to do a front end conversion on my 94 Del Sol Type S.. I was going to do an EK swap. But that seems like it is going to be more work then I wanna deal with right now. So I was thinking.. Will the 5th gen civic front end fit on the del sol?? And would it be as much, more or less work then the EK conversion..

They are the same amount of work.

The second image is from the second link I posted. I think it was the second link I posted at least. It should be up there. Another guy asked about the front end conversion in the other thread and posted that image as an example.

That wasn't his question.

He said he wanted a 6th gen front end (didn't even say anything about an EM1 or an Si).

But he didn't ask about how to do that conversion. He just wanted to know if doing the 5th gen front end conversion would be more, less or the same amount of work.

Oh, and his question was already answered above. It's the same amount of work.

it's a LOT of work homie. But in the end, well worth it imo. but trust me when i say a lot of work. It's almost all customization. nothing bolts right on. In the end though, it could look like this.

It was last bumped on the second, but was made on the twenty-seventh.

So nix94delsol was right at the time that he said it.

id just keep the stock front end. although there is a guy around the milwaukee area with an itr front end and s2000 tails on his del sol, and it looks insanely clean, and im not a fan of conversions.

Ek front end looks fckn niiice.

it gives the sol a very appreciated wider stance up front

just as long as you don't rice it out with an ugly bumper and z3 fenders and halos it'll look pretty nice

for your question: I heard eg and ek conversion are the same process but with different body parts respectively

This is an old thread.

The OP probably doesn't need much more advice, or at least he would post if he needed it.
