Default Show me your EG with EK front end...

Hi I just wanted to see if anyone here haves a EG with EK front end.

I have a 92Cx with EK front end, i made the conversion on 2004!, im sure there should be a few here in H-T, right?

(HOLY CRAP! a Mugen CAI!!, whaaaT!?) you guys have to excuse me 4 that 1, hehehe...


BTW:
I really really tried to search , but i didnt find anything, just a guy selling one, that was all, maybe i dont know how to search!? (i even read the "how to use the search" ehhehe)

I think you did a great job. It looks almost like it came that way from the factory. I usually am not a fan of front-end conversions, but this one rocks.

So, can you tell us more about it? How did you go about the conversion? Any pictures of the install process?

I dont have Pictures of the process , But basically you need the whole front end from a EK (hood, Radiator support, fenders, bumper, grill, headlamps offcourse hehe) and you need to change the radiator support, and cut the EG and EK fenders, weld them and do some body work. Overall its not that hard...

And about the tinted windshield, basically all cars here have it tinted. You will get a ticket for having any tint on the windshield.

EG hatch with EK front end is my favorite, it looks so good this makes me want one even more. Too bad I cant find a hatch that wasnt molested.

To each his own who thinks this is eye candy but these conversions are certainly not my cup of tea.

I'm with pat ^. The OP's conversion came out clean, but for every one clean one that's done there are 15 more that look like that green hatch above. gross.

This is like team-integra.net status, etc. I hope many EG enthusiasts steer away from this habit.
