if you have an EK front lying around that you don't know what to do with than just call it a day.

if you're still that deeply set on getting it fitted onto an EP3 then good luck and be prepared to be horribly horribly flamed.

realistically have you ever measured the 2? to me it always looked like there was a huge difference between the widths EP3s and EKs.

you ask for opinions and dont like what you hear so now we're haters. if all you wanted to hear were opinions supporting this you should have said that from the start.

theres only 3 people with Hondas,

ricers/******s

tuners <- OP

and normal DD's. <- you

don't flame because he customized his Honda, people have done front end conversions for years now. just because he thinks outside the box you cry about it?

if you don't like a specific customization fine, don't whine about it just go on about your merry way and rock out your OEM 98ex. im sure theres a lot of people who don't like your steelies or stock suspension but who cares?

you voiced your opinion about not liking it, per the OP's request, coming back and flaming about it will just seem like jealousy.

see the difference between ricer and tuner?
