Icon2 Front end swap on 98 Civic EJ8

So currently I have some front end damage that im planing on redoing here real soon! But the question is should I just go back stock? Or should I switch up some. So i was wondering what everyone thinks of swapping the front and what to. I've seen some Acura EL swaps that I think looks badass.I thought they were doing a front end swap off a jap Isuzu but I cant seem to find it any help on that would be appreciated. Then the last I know of is the Si front end from 99-00. So comments and/or suggestions welcome.

Oh yea its a 4 door :D

Do what you want to your car

96-98 SIR SWAP



Bumper Headlights foglights grille hood fenders if its a 96-98 you dont need rad support but if you have everything good but the bumper the bumper is a direct bolton

99-00 Swap



Bumper grille fenders hood headlights radiator support

Domani Swap




Same as 99-00 Swap

I'm trying to figure out if i want to go SiR or Domani myself
