I don't know where to get the conversion, but all the pieces bolt up.

What i am about to ell you might take a little while, but get on http://www.car-part.com and look for EL stuff. I have an EL and usually have no problem finding stuff.

Oh and

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...46838

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...49663

These links are for both fenders if you think $75 is reasonable for each.

As i said earlier, i have an EL, so if you have any questions about some stuff i would be glad to help you.

I will snap some pictures of my car. Anything you want to see in particular?

That's because you live in Canada. The US has no EL.

To do an EL conversion on a Civic, I believe you need the hood, fenders, bumper, grill, headlights, and the radiator support.

There is a guy local to me with an EK hatch and an Acura EL front end conversion. I normally do no like any kind of conversion, but in all honesty, it looks VERY good.
