Default 98 civic / skyline - put a r33 gtr front end on a civic 96-00?

ok here it is ...
first of all i dont know where i would even post this .. so i expect it to get moved..
second i dont need anyones smart remarks please .. this is just an idea
third .. i was wondering how hard would it be to put a r33 gtr front end on a civic 96-00 .. no motor or suspension or anything JUST BODY PANELS hood fenders bumper etc ...

to be honest i dont think it would be too hard to get this done ..

please any input would be appreciated

if you have to ask then its too hard to do.

best way would probably be to take an entire front clip off of a skyline and weld it onto a civic.

i've seen skyline conversions done in the past on integras and a accord and the way they did it was by only using the headlights from a skyline and body panels from bodykits which they cut up and bondo'd and fiberglassed together.

Is it possible? Yes. Is it possible for YOU? Probably not. How hard would it be? Who the hell knows?
