crashed my car and my fender and hood is f@cked. I can get an EG front end for cheap. I was thinking of trying to put it on. How much different is the size of a crx compared to an EG hatch? Like the width of hood, length of fenders, etc

 

I dont know....but i dont think i have seen an eg front on a crx.....if someone has please post and help this guy out.....

 

The only thing i've seen is EG headlights shaved into the front of an EF. I haven't seen a whole front end conversion. I'm sure it can be done, but I doubt it'll be cheaper than getting another EF front end.

 

with all the body work that would be needed to make it look *right*, you could just pick up some stock pieces and save your money.

or get a jap-spec front end. the crx has one of the nicest front ends imho and i cant see why you would want to change that.

my .02 pennies

 

its been done before, i dont have the pic on this computer, but i remember seeing it on clubsi a while back, and he said it was expensive. it was a custom hood and fenders though.

 

pics.. need pics!

 

i havent seen an eg but i have seen and integra front end on a crx it looked pretty sick but the guys said it was pretty custum and he prolly wouldnt do it again lol

 

found this on autotrader.ca:



a little riced-out but you get the idea

 

looks decent...but i woulndt do it

 

that looks sweet, if not for the body kit.

 

**** that, it looks stupid. if you want your car to look ridiculous then save yourself the hassle and just buy an eg.

 

thoughts in mind.. I might "try" this swap since its cheaper then CRX parts.
Also.. anyone ever see a JM ITR front end on a ef before???

what he said...

 

wow someone actually got a pic....cool...i really dont like the kit....but the conversion is not that bad....

 

i've seen one in real life, and i must say it looks sweet. it was just a front end with a lip. looked clean as hell, and had you guessing as to what it was

go for it man

 

to each their own of course but i think it defeats the purpose of why we were all attracted to our little boxy 4thgens anyway?

Exactly why put a rounded out front end onto a boxy car??

 

Ive seen a Type R FE on a crx...theres a guy near my house that has one-its HELLA rice though! It looks like **** but hes proud of it....lol...and his exhust comes out by the front tires on a stock motor....the conversion would look ok if he did it right and actually took time. Ill see if I can take some pics of it for yall.....

Whats wrong with that? Keeps exhaust velocity up so it would work better than most full exhausts.

 

eg front end looks sweet on crx's especially if you leave the front end stock.

 

looks FUGLY and the body lines r fucked to hell and it looks like it'll fall apart if u go over a speed bump....( just my thoughts of it)

 

more pics?

 

imo...i wouldnt do it bro...i would much rather spend my money on another car...i know for a fact that converting your front end would cost a lot...but then if you have the money, do your own job, or get it free...then its ok...honestly though i think it looks too ricey to me...no pun intended
