ok.. as far as front ends go, ive been doing my early research into the EF9 front end. i've mostly done researched the CRX, but i do know a little about this.

EF9 SiR front end is very similar to the EF8 front end. has an SiR hood. it does NOT have a bump in the hood. that is a ZC. the SiR hood does push up a little. look at the center of your USDM hood.. notice how the the center dips DOWN, the SiR hood will take that same shape, but it will go UP. the EF9 front end also has JDM headlights which are wider than USDM, and it has clear corners. These are NOT one piece headlights. and i do believe the 1 piece headlights are based on the ZC(same size as USDM) headlights and corner light shape. Bumper covers are also different to incorporate the new headlight shape and they have wrap around bumper lights. the EF9 front end also has side marker fenders.

if you want 1 piece headlights and a JDM "front end" what i would suggest is get a ZC hood (with the buldge in the hood) and get the 1 piece headlights.

http://www.passwordjdm.com has some of these parts and so does http://shop.store.yahoo.com/autosonic/index.html has the 1 piece headlights.

hope that helps!

oops forgot.. the EF9 hood also incorporates the headlight shape, while the ZC will incorporate the ZC (USDM size) and i think 1 piece headlight shape

Password JDM carries the EF 4 door frontends. Yes they do have 1-peice headlights. This is what it looks like see the gray car. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=550314 Steve is the man also. He is willing to go the extra mile to keep his customers happy. http://www.passwordjdm.com

Yes, the hatch use the filler piece and no bumper reinforcements just 11 bolts holding it up. (4 in front, 3 underneath, and 2 on each wheel well.)

whats the hammer for? people say the usdm crx front end will fit on a hatch.. why would it be so bad to put the crx front on a hatch? or even the 4 door one. im not really a fan of the jdm hatch front end it looks almsot the same as the usdm, the crx and 4 door, on the other hand, are very different. so nobody has any pics of the 4 door or crx jdm fronts on a hatch???

looks like the whole jdm crx front end is different to the hatch including the wings.

Big job, but i bet it can be grated.
