Default Wrong year fenders or wrong year lights?

OK, here are some pics of the 2000 civic SI I recently purchased, the lights sit in it funny and I was wondering if its the lights or the fenders? Could they be mismatching years, if so, any ideas as to how to determine which is which?

AND, I know the hood is jacked up, I just noticed it today, its actually just on the car crooked, easy fix. so please ignore it.

And thanks in advance.

P.S.
If you have any suggestions on different head lights, please feel free to share.
I like the projectors myself, But to each their own.

Lol quality fit right there. A good place to start is replacing all that front end bullshit with oem, and maybe the fit will be there. Most likely it probably has frame damage from the previous owner.

I agree. The aftermarket headlights all fit like junk. Get some oem ones and that should help. Stock hood too.

I don't think those are 96-98 headlights, they're just eBay junk ones.
ever been in an accident? if not grab a set of oem 99-00 lights off craigslist and try to fit it all good.

Could you get an entire front end picture? From my perspective, looks like the head lights are 99-00 and the rest is 96-98. We can probably determine if you give us a picture with full view.

seems like '99-'00 lights and '99-'00 fender, so I think that's correct. the '96-'98 lights have a different angle at the back of the light. Since the line of the fender follows the light, the year is not the problem. I'm guessing that car has seen a serious accident and repaired with aftermarket parts.

X2 96-98 lights are more oval where it meets up with fender!! also think junk lights are the problem

sorry for not being on to reply lately... but I bought the car like this... it has no structural damage in the front end... I was thinking it might just be the lights, I just didn't know if anyone had seen this before..
thanks for all the replies

This might be a new trend for the hellaflush guys, would match some wrong fitment wheels perfectly

Hope you get it sorted though, looks like the previous owner ordered parts without knowing what model year his car was. Few nice holes in the fender and bumper as well.
