Default Thinking of doing...

I want to put a 90-91 JDM Integra Front end on my DX Hatch....does anyone know if this was done???


I got the idea from when I played the prank on my friend and put a DC Front end on his EF Sedan, is it roughly the same???

I would have to do a body kit on that...I do NOT like how that looks in stock trim, It would have to be lowered, rear fenders flared, side skirts and rear bumper...tasteful, nothing dumb and wild looking.

It looks FUNNY like that to me..

lol did you just say "rear fenders flared, side skirts, and rear bumper" along with "nothing dumb and wild looking" in the same sentence.... this is 2010 not 2001... i really though this was going to be a stupid thread since most threads in the ef section are full of newbish bullshit. but this car actually looks ok for the most part never thought a da front clip would fit so good on an ef... then again this could be photo shoped for all i know

Well what I mean is that I would want to make the stance on the car wider, to accomidate the longer front, like the person above me suggested, the NOSE on the car looks way to long, it's not a good look to me...So, I'm suggesting WIDENING the entire car by some means, chasis, maybe even from a wheel base standpoint, anything to compliment the longer nose.

from the money spent doing the conversion you will never see the money out of it that you put into it, whether you think it looks good or not. If you want to do it than do it, but if you want advise....do not do it! its not worth it and the money could be spent on better things.

I agree...I definitely degree...it was just a THOUGHT not something i'm committed to at the moment, i'm in the middle of an All motor LS-Vtec build and right now that has my full focus, as I am a man who puts performance over presentation..still..

when the thought jumped in my head...I just wanted input on it...if it's going to look like THAT...then I think i'ma just leave my car alone.

He did you and the potential people you could have killed a big favor.

I'm with you...despite the 3 minute drive (I literally lived 1/4 mile or slightly more from the party, could have walked but I didn't), he probably did do me a favor....but after 3am-4am I was sober...I sat in my car still till like 12 Noon...So after a while the favor's gone and the prank is well SET in.

And I'm with you on that...

it was just a thought, I dunno, I'm just glad I didn't invest in it. I was never the type of guy to go moddin' the outside of my car outside of tints, HID's and wheels, but the idea just crept in m head and I wanted input..

I'ma motor guy, my car can look like a piece of **** but it'll haul *** on you all day every day, infact, MOST if not all my cars have a stock look save for my Ek Turbo Hatch.
