Default 98 civic ex RHD conversion CTR
Sup all i been on honda tech for a while and just thought i would post sum pix of my conversion and where im at so far to help out others who might be thinking about doing it.

First I got a 98 civic ex
Second ordered a ek9 front clip
Third Stripped the ex completly bare
Fourth i stripped the ek9 clip
Fifth Cut,weld,seal and painted EBP


will update as i go along more
Car is almost complete and i am painting it next month.everthing is assembled and car runs good.all body panels fit nice and tight and looks like nothing ever happened.

UPDATED AS OF 6/26/09

Awww... I miss the Milano Red already.

Are you going to do a front end conversion too? EBP never looks right on '96-'98 front ends imo.

looks like its been carried out to a very good standard!, good job

i always wondered though, wouldnt it be more cost affective for you guys over there to import an EJ9/EK3 from the UK?, or would there be problems with registering them or something?
