Default EF Civic Convertions?? EK??

Did anyone ever see a 96-00 EK COnvertion on a EF. I SEARCH and nothing came back just people saying they saw but there arent any pictures. Or is it even Possible to do that. Is there any EF Civics with any convertions?

I've seen it and it ain't pretty. The angular lines of the CRX don't mesh with the smoother curves on the EK

it's not even that.
Simply because the EF is like a damn shoe box you can not have a round/curvy front end of it. It does not flow well with the car chassie's natural lines.

I've seen it on a CRX... (red one with GM rims) looks ok on the crx.... but on a ef hb you have no chance of it looking right.

Well as you can see most people here don't approve of this type of mod. However if it's something you want, do it. Who cares about what we think it's your car

Im not thinkin of doin it but it doesnt look that bad. I think most people here are followers im not saying everyone but most people are. Even thought that is a CRX it looks better how he molded the fenders to the skirts and rear pannel. It looks better then the dc2 front on a CRX. Thanks for the pic.

I have seen (in a japanese magazine) a Civic CRX Del Sol with a 96-98 front end. not too shabby. And Civic CRX Del Sol front ends swap with EG civics no problems and then there is teh JDM integ on a civic coupe.
