hey i have 92 hatchback

well i was wondering..

what do i need to do the.. integra front swap..

i know i need.. front bumper, fanders, headlights.

and.. hoods..

well do i need to get any otherthings??

like radiator supports?


also.. how do i do the swap?

thanx..

 

Take it to a body shop

 

Call VIS, they should be able to tell you in detail everything you need... and they can sell it to you.

 

thanx. guys..

but the aswer somehow does not satisify me fully..

hehe.. well

anyone know about this conversion?

thanx...

 

a guy called "obd1canobie." his name is Don. IM him sometime.

 

he needs to learn how to spell its kenobi damnit !!!! (sorry Im unfortunately one of those geeky starwars nuts haha)

 

You will need some small parts, also the radiator support, rebar fender brackets, etc. BTW are we talking putting on a JDM or USDM teg Front on? Parts above are the same either way Im just curious. I saw a pic of the conv once and it looks good on a civic

 

the USDM integra front on a hatch and Crx looks soo phat....just as good as it does on the real integra....i love custom conversions make sure it looks clean...i hate ugly stuff

 

it look dope as **** on the coupes and 4drs.

 

I am also interested in this conversion, I saw it on Import Racer mag once. It was a 5th gen hatch with a USDM teg front. It looked beast!! How much do you think this would cost?

 

damn

yah.. here some guy with eg civic coupe had.. integra front end..

painted cw itr color..

dude it looked like itr with front lip

but it had eg coupe rear.. hehe

oh well ill have to ask him about the set up..

yah..^^

 

how much did he spend on the front end setup? and can you do it yourself?

 

it depends if your competent with body work...anything can be done...to do the DC front end on a civic you'll need the hood (with a little work to the hinges...the integras hood is slightly wider), re-bar, lights and bumper...and the fenders will have to be custom... blending the front/top part or the integ fenders with the civics rear...

i did this with my JDM front end on my Dc...exact same type of work...i replaced the hood, rebar and bumper...custom made a hood latch and made my own fenders...out of metal! it took alot of shaping/pounding/stretching/shirinking with specialized body tools (like an english wheel)...youd never be able to tell (well, ive been doing custom autobody for 5years)...and it wont cost much..i did my whole JDM front end for...well...cheap...lemme wait to sell the car before i get into too much more detail...

 

check out this EG hatch with a JDM front end... looks nice

Surge-GT,

Do you have pics of your conversion, I assumed by your post that you didn't
change the rad support?? Am I right? If so, do the headlights line up properly with the USDM rad support?

thanks

 

damn......this is, by far, my favorite body mod for a civic. i've only seen it once before and it is DOPE!!!! i'm interested in this too....does anyone know how much the parts would cost for this?? isn't it somewhere around $2000 for the parts?

 

this is my favorite body kit ever, looks so good.


and it's cheaper than the itr conversion

That looks amazing! Is that the Sylvia conversion? Which one would be more expensive and difficult, teg front or sylvia?

 

the teg conversion is more expensive. i think they both look bad-***. i like how the sylvia front end looks mean.

 

I would love to see some pics of your conversion, maybe someday i would like to have my coupe done, and if i like what i see, i'll give you a call....
