Hey Guys I just got a JDM ITR Front end for my DC2 GSR, and i was told that i needed to make hole some where in the front end so it can fit good on my Integra for like $60 bucks...If you guys know any in So Cal let me know with their number or address. Oh before i forget, i need to get a fender bracket. If you guys know any place or websites, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

 

I have no idea what you're talking about. Some "Hole" to make it fit better?

Are you having fitment issues? Maybe they just want you to spend 60 bucks to put a hole in your wallet? But seriously, why did they mention it in the first place?

 

Thanks for the reply...Well the guy at passwordjdm told me that i need to get hole at the bumper support...but other than that just bolt it on...how the ITR conversion work? and what do i do?

 

i highly suggest you get rid of the front end.

 

The front end conversion is alittle more complicated than whomever at Password told you.

You will need to drill out all the welds on your stock radiator support then weld in the JDM Integra radiator support. Some people do the T bar coversion which still includes alot of cutting and, ideally, welding in the jdm t support.

Then you'll have to splice in the harness for the JDM headlights.

For the record, there's no "hole" to be made. I dont know what you're refering to. Best thing to do is do a search on JDM Integra front end conversions and see what is really involved. You will probably have to take your car to a body shop to have them do the work - it wont be cheap.

 

So how much would it be to do all that work?

 

haven't really looked into it but from what i have seen, a shop in norcal does it for $400

 

Well if thats how much for the front end to get installed...so does anyone know one in So Cal?

 

Nobody will help you for $60. theres alot of work involved. minimum is about $200 and thats with no welding.

 

what the ****?

 

if i wer u i would just do it myself like i did,i was being charge 1600 installation plus paint.. its pretty easy, all u need is drill all the spot weld on that orig radiator.. after that everything is bolt on unless u know how to weld.. its worth it!!!!

Well I dunno how to weld...is it hard?

 

no! but u will need to practice on something first.. or do what my cousin did, he cant afford to buy a welder or get it weld.. so instead of getting it welded he just drilled through the spot welds and he screwd those things using homedepot screws..it held up pretty good and its been over 2 yrs now and still pretty good.. this is just an exmple jst to give u some ideas..U know wat spot weld looks like right?

 

That just might be the worst thing I've ever heard. OP please don't hack up your car and turn it into a potential nightmare for the next unsuspecting owner. Get it done right, weld it please. If not, just sell it to someone who is prepared to install it properly.

 

Does anybody know what spots to weld? Or any pics showing what to weld...
