Default Front end conversions

is it possible to do 94- front end conversions on 88-91 crx/civic or 92- civic front conversions? Just an idea if anybody knows?

I wouldnt mind doing a 92-95 civic front end on my crx. Any pics anyone? As for you haters..your entitled to your opinion so say whatever you like. But bottom line is I pay for whatever goes into my car ...not you.

Word!

I'm thinking about doing a '94+ Integra front end. I can't find any pictures or instructions or anything at all on the matter. I did search the archives to here and saw past conversations on it, but didn't find anything more that conversations. I already have a cf hood, just need a front bumper and fenders and then my roommate (he does paint and body work) will start on it.

Well... my front bumper is already crashed so and I have the parts already.. but a bit lazy to do it if its not going to come out nice. I'm pretty sure i can do it...just wanna see what it will look like before hand to see if its worth thr trouble.

WOAH- they must have just painted the rest of the car to match the bondo they used making the front end work

Actually I looked at my friend's EG this weekend and it looks like it would be a decently straightforward swap. it looks like everything will fit with minimal modification. good luck

I'm going to do the front end work first, then paint the engine bay before the motor goes in. Why is everyone always harping on speed instead of looks? Is any type of body mod going to make my ride a rice mobile or something?!! I just asked for a link or pic of a civic front end on a crx...no disrespect but can we please stay on topic here...

the front-end conversion that CR-X posted is the cleanest one I've seen. It gives the crx
a good, clean, more modern looking crx look. That crx that has the teg front-end
conversion looks like **** and wasn't done well at all. There is a red crx that has a very
clean teg front- end conversion that was done professionally and looks really good. If
I can find it, I'll post it. As for whether you should or not, I'd say go for it if it can be done
cleanly and made to look like it belongs.

I'm not paying anyone to do it.. doin' it myself. I already got the parts so now that i know what it looks like.. I'm gunna do it. I dont really like the back bumper, but the front looks really clean and nice. I'll probably stay with the stock front and add a front chin spoiler. But thatnks for the pics...

Personally, i think that car is ugly as sin. The headlight conversion looks good, but goddam! that front bumper lip is WAY too big. I'm not knockin anyones hard work, but definatly not my style.

Headlights <~~~~~

i dont think the front looks that bad..but its not my taste. It makes a nice show car but for me I'm gunna go stock front and a front lip. Not as agressive as his but maybe something simular to a Spoon. The OEM one looks okay too..but just a tad to conservative. Now any suggestions on front chin spoilers??
