1.) Improve Drivability

Is your car broke? Is it lowered? What do you mean drive ability?

2.) Possibly swap the front clip bc of a front end collision previously

Depends on the year of your EM2. You can swap 01-03 on a 04-05 or go 04-05 on a 01-03.

I would recommend that you start here first:

It should help you find a direction you want to head.

- I'm pretty sure the car is needing new tie rod ends to fix a vibration in the steering. As far as the front end conversion goes, it's an 05 civic vp and i'd like to swap like an ex front to get driving lights... or maybe even swap a ep3 front clip or something else in the year range provided there will be the ability to swap everything.
