your nearest local classified ads, ebay, and the parts trader would be a great place to find a 3rd gen for sale.


think about it, the point of what i've said in response to your question will become clear with time.


edit: **** it i don't care. you are SO much better off just buying a 3rd gen. why would you want to do it anyway? seriously....the gen 2 has its own lines, why the hell ruin them with a 3rd gen front end? it'll take lights, hood, radiator support, fenders, bumper, lip, bumper support....and then probably 3-4 weeks MIN-I-MUM at a body shop while they figure out how the hell to do it. if you have a g2, be proud of your car. if you have a g3, be proud of your car. but don't, please, for the LOVE OF GOD, try to make one look like the other. just makes you look like michael jackson......didn't like the look of how it came from the factory, so you gotta give it a totally new face 30 different times. i mean don't get me wrong, i support making it look different if the show thing is your thing. but don't try to make it look like something it's not. that's just goin pure Richard Simmons on your car. be proud of what it is, and get creative without having to turn it into something it isn't.

really i second the last guy's response.. the gen2 looks clean as is without trying to make it into a 3rdgen. The 2nd gen has that more agressive rigid cut look to it and the 3rd gen looks alittle more sleek, but it kinda defeats the styling theme/concept or what have you to change it ya kno?

Besides... you can pick up a 94 RS for around 4k now bro... y not just start that project up?

Well if you decide to keep your gen2 thats fine too don't get me wrong i like the gen2 as well, but i would think twice about attemptin such a conv.

Oh but that bit about the 4k was cuz i'm kinda pissed at how low my 94 LS's value is rite now haha...

hmm i think that might look cool..a JDM front end conversion for a g3 modified for a g2. I think it would look tight. I say go for it..show us lots of pics too.

I would get in contact with your local bodyshop and see what they think

actually if you've ever seen a 2nd gen integra with the JDM ITR lights, it looks like those kids who rode the shortbus to school and drooled on themselves.


in other words, really f'in retarded.
