Got my complete JDM front end from HMO and a little something special too! (Large pictures)
Ok, I finally decided to dish out the money and buy the jdm front end for my crx im currently building. I went through HMO motors because I knew Steve wouldnt let me down. It turns out that I got it today which was relatively fast shipping for a big box crate from California to Missouri. The whold damn thing is just fantastic. It's in great shape. The bumper is in good shape with no deep gouges or missing pieces. The fenders have no huge scrapes or imperfections besides one small ding/crease on one of the fenders which will be no problem fixing. There are some scratches that are not deep at all but it is getting repainted champ white. Also, excuse the brown tape i havent took off of the bumper. The headlights along with the bumper and corner lights are so clear and not fogged at all. There are no cracks in the lights. I also got the T-bracket that bolts on to the radiator support in which you need for the front end. I didn't get a hood becuase I'm going with a carbon fiber hood so he knocked off more than $100 i think for that. So here it is...oh yeah and i got the sir lip too attached to the bumper 
just thought it would be interesting to compare it to a usdm si front bumper (which i need to sell so email me if interested)
a little something special i got that you guys might like...i would rather not give a lot of info on where to buy these lips or how much they cost right now becuase the maker of these is undecided if he will make them or not. I guess you could email me if you want a little more info on them or who to call. Enjoy
anyone know where to get a Grade A nice looking CF hood for the JDM front end let me know!

kinda selfish don't you think, look at that crx lip thread, look how many people are willing to bend and melt lips for civics and use rain gutters because no one will share where to get a lip that fits right?
spill the beans JCracer723
nice score and good luck with the swap though

You are not "busting my bubble" at all actually. I know that those cf lips are already made but acutually nobody has one becuase a lack of contacting the maker and a lack of dishing out the money to buy one has come in effect. I have actually commented on a lot of the threads about the lips.

Selfish? I have commented on lip threads before about where to go and who to contact to buy one. The only reason I'm being "selfish" as you would describe is becuase I don't want to be the jerk if the maker says why in the hell did you tell all these people about the lip when I'm not sure if I'm going to go through with this or not. I'm not telling a lot of info on the lips as of this time to be selfish. That is the LAST thing I want to do on these forums. You guys help me out so very much and I want to appreciate that by helping you.
If you are seriously interested in the lips you need to call 562-412-8670. His name is Gus and I think it's his personal phone. Just ask him about them. I'm sure that if he gets enought people and interest without any flakers I would imagine he would consider getting a gross amount made.
I'm really not trying to keep it a secret or be selfish with this at all. It's for his sake not mine.

Re: (madeiniraq)
sorry for not answering. the exhaust is actually ordered through accordinglydone.com. He is a great guy to do business with and he sells these types of mandrel bent exhaust that are unwelded so you can kind of fit them your self. You can weld them or clamp them. I got mine with a magnaflow muffler and a 14" silencer. You can order different sizes and aluminum or stainless. I got all 3" stainless even the muffler and silencer are stainless.

Re: Got my complete JDM front end from HMO and a little something special too! (japrex)
glad to see your front end was in descent shape. mine(also from HMO) came in with a huge hole in the bumper, dented up hood, and they sent two passenger side turn signals instead of a a driver side.

Did HMO get you squared away and fix the problem?

Yep, that is the post. He is the man. He actually has a body man make them for him but he has to spend the money to get them made and he cant just go and start spending a **** load of money to get them made and not have people buy them for sure without flaking. He's a super cool guy though so anyone can contact him and see what he can do for you.
