Just give him the info. Generally it includes a lot of cutting and welding. It's not bolt on. Far from it.

Google the procedure.

Ok you need to swap the core support for the JDM teg support. fenders, Hood, Bumper, Grill, Headlights. Front headlight harness will need to be changed. If your lucky you may get one thats not cut when you get your front end conversion. If its cut then you will have some wiring to do as well. Its not a hard job if you have access to a grinder and a welder. I have done a couple 99-2000 swaps on civic's to give them the updated look and its about the same amount of work.

Hope that helps.

thats a stretch....its easy if your an exp body man...cutting and welding done well is a feat in itself....not something you just pick up in an afternoon.

Fair point on that. I should say its easy for me. I worked for a Mercedes body shop for many years so cutting and welding is easy.
