Default My 95 to 98+ conversion! need help

Before I bring the stuffs to the shop I found.
I want to know if it is completely bolt-on installation aside from painting.
any cutting of the radiator support? or Extra screws needed right? or drilling?

I have a 95 LSSE--converting to a 98+ look.
Items I will bring to the shop:
1999 Front bumper(with round supports for bumper lens)
1999 bumper lenses
2000 Integra Headlights
2000 Rear bumper(from coupe)
1998 power mirrors

am I missing anything? do I need the new reinforcers(styrofoam?)?

Not sure about your question, but I too want to somday do a front end conversion. About how much did everything cost you, were the parts hard to find?

Yes, that's all you need to complete the conversion. It should just bolt right up.

i didnt know the mirrors were different from those 94-97's
I'm pretty sure only the '94-95's were different. '96 and up all have the same style mirrors

Are the headlight's really needed? Or can the front bumbers just be swapped?

Yes you need the headlights, 98+ lights are diff from 94-97, as well as the bumpers, both front and back.

thanks,
MiraiZ: I don't like the JDM front, too much like an Accord.
and I got a set of OEM kit from Radley acura (349 shipped).
therefore my conversion will be fully conpleted into the 98+ look with 95 GSR RimS

SamuraiJack: I think the Newer integra Mirrors are the same as the 97+ prelude ones too.

94-95 Side mirrors are different than 96-01.

You'll need the front bumper cover, headlights, corner signals, taillights, rear bumper cover, updated climate control, updated guage bezel, 4-way adjustable front seats, and so on, and so on...

Why not the JDM front end? -- $2500+ vs. $1000+ ... that's why.

96+ Side mirrors have a little horizontal "cut" extending from the tip to the base...
