Yeah it's a Del Sol bumper 100%. I had two Del Sols and on the titles they say Civic Del Sol, so a lot of places just call the Civics.

Not to knowledgeable on Del sol's, but will it fit a civic? I know they are almost the same as front body wise, but not certain.

Yeah denji s are nice if they blend in. Dude check out those mirrors, look so out of place its not even funny. Thats probably why it looks so awkward. It looks like a sol with a civic front clip welded in haha

what are you talking about? "The mirrors look out of place"? I think they look nice on my Sol, and they looked pretty good on my S2000 too. I think that conversion is by far the only one I would ever approve of for the EG2. Gotta keep it in the same family.

and to the OP, I would say ask a photoshopper to throw a Del Sol front on a EG Civic (hatch preferablly) and see what it looks like. I've seen EGs with USDM Integra, JDM Integra, Silvia S15, IS300, 96-98 Civic, 99-00 Civic, 4 Door EG, and Accord front ends, they all look very tasteless. The Del Sol front however, done RIGHT could look interesting.

The conversion would consist of a Del Sol front bumper, headlights, fenders (would have to be cut and welded onto the Civics fenders), hood, most like front radiator support. All of those things you could get a junkyard for under 800 bucks. There was a guy on here who did a walkthrough on his USDM Integra front on his EG Civic. It would be essentially the same thing for you. Look it up. I know that the EG Civic bumper is alittle bit different in width than the Sol's. (there is a guy in the DSOC thread who molded a EG Civic bottom bumper to his Del Sol bumper (for the OEM Fog holes) looks legit.

Good luck on doing whatever you do.

the front triangular glass would prevent a mirror from being anywhere other than where they're at so i guess thats the spot to be, just in that pic they do look a big pushed back... especially since im rock some c/f formula 1 mirrors on my **** lol..

like these on this S2K which i think would look just as gangster on the SOL instead of those oem ones...
