BMW frontend conversion?? there are no kits for frontend conversions. you're going to need the whole cars frontend (hood, fenders, bumper, lights). you need to do a lot of searching n00b. thats how it works on H-T. w/o search, you're going to get nothing but bashes. so use it, search is your friend.

that's sad.

If you want a BMW front end... buy a BMW. they're good cars.

i understand that doing insane body mods requires some skill, imagination and all that stuff... but why do you really want to make a civic look like a BMW? I understand putting 1950 pontiac tails on a 1930 A-bone... I understand tractor headlights on a T-bucket... So you'd think I'd understand this... but I don't.

that, and the other thing is i'd like to ask that guy how much filler he used for that "kit"...

Yeah really, you should be able to find a Ti for a reasonable price. 138hp 1.9L i4, just waiting for a turbo.

This guy that lives around my neighborhood has that tail light conversion, and seeing it in person makes it look that much worse. But to each is own, I guess.

lol J-T... I remember seeing one of the first headlight/taillight conversions done back '98 by Tony over there... a Miata with Supra lights. Looked really good, it fit the lines of the car really well. Made it look like a mini-Supra
