Default jdm type r conversion eg civic

has anyone here put a jdm integra type r headlight conversion on the eg civic. ive seen it done before and it looks really nice when they use factory like front bumper and fenders. If anyone has done it here i was wondering what fenders, hood, and front bumper they had to use. also how much they spend and how difficult it was? any help would be appreciated. thanks

If i were you, I'd kill 2 birds with one wad of cash..

Just buy a complete Front Clip of a JDM ITR. You'll get the body parts, plus the engine, and front brakes

Okay well first off I hate any conversions so I'm probably not the one to talk... My friend David has 2 EH2's... One with '99-2000 headlights the other with JDM ITR's and they're both gay... But that's just me... Here's a pic of his JDM one... Latez

At the shop

Interior with the ugly Teg dash

At HIN (Seattle, Washington) this past March

Make sure you ask Spoon92 how much the total was after the conversion.

BTW: The white hatch above ^^^ would look so much better without the wide body boosheet.

Damn, I thought most people would think David's car is just straight ugly... Atleast that's what I think, hehe It's all good tho, we all need to have our own opinions... As far as the hood, David has had his CF hood for like 2 months now and the one that is pictured with it above (the OE one) was accidently run over by another guy at the shop, hehehe... Oh well... David's getting a turbo motor similar to Brian's and Scott (streetracer) and I are trying talk him into putting it into an EH, Brian's car has made 536whp/340wtq on 22lbs and ran 10.98@133 full interior (it's not in anyway a race car, he drives it everyday)... That's having a lot of traction problems too so just imagine that motor in an EH... Right now he's got another JDM ITR front clip ordered for his Teg which he says he is gonna keep clean and put the turbo motor into but who knows... Sorry to bore all of you with this... Peace

Oh man, wide body, wings, M3 mirrors, and an Integra front end, I'm about to throw up! He could have just bought an Integra, and save himself money and hassles

You guys gotta think here.. That white hatch didn't just come out of the shop right away like that. It was a project, and I bet that guy started that project a few years ago. This WHOLE JDM CLEAN phase wasn't in then. If he got an Integra and put the JDM front on there, he would of just looked like the other integras on HT. This is all a hobby to be different. Just let it be, it's clean lookin' if you ask me.

Right, cause we're not super fast like you
Nothing was ever said about his motor, if it's fast, great, good for him. But just because it's turbo, doesn't mean ****, it could have a 20,000 dollar turbo set up, and still run like ****, so I'm not impressed with shiny piping and blow off valves. The post was regarding the appearance of the car, which looks horrible, in my opinion. If I'm a hater for having an opinion, so be it. Body lines don't flow for ****, the mirrors look cheap on any Honda/Acura, the wing looks out of place, and the wide body in the rear is ridiculous. That is all
