i went to your site is it me or do your side skirts look a little off ? maybe its just a bad pic, also does the front bumper stick out more than the rest of the body ? the front looks wider than the rest of the car, you think adding wide rear fenders would make it look more the same size ?

i have one as well

I think it looks a lot better than others that i've seen in person.. It costs around 1000-1500 to have this professionally done but i bought my shell that way..

Good luck with it.. I think it looks pretty good if its done right.

Then you weld on the integra core support. Then the next step which is also the hardest is the fenders. You need to cut off a tiny bit of your civic fenders so that it can still bolt and lign up with your doors. Here's a pic off of the page linked to before by somebody.

That's the hardest part, and that's because you have to get the right amount of length and such so that it will lign up correctly with the front end of the car (bumper and such). And after you get the fenders fabbed up correctly then eveything is pretty much bolt on. There's a lot of little things that could go wrong, such as things not ligning up correctly so you'll have to think about everything when you're doing each little thing. Make sure the core support goes on correctly, at the right length and such, so that the hood, bumper, and everything will fit properly after it's bolted on. So you have to have lots of patience and take your time (and brain) with this project. My cousin owns a shop and we've done a lot of projects like this, never a teg front end on a civic, but we've done EK front ends onto EGs and such, so we've basically done the same procedure. Good luck

And personally I think the conversion makes the car look funny. The front end is way too long for the car, especially since the rear end is so tiny.

I've seen DA front ends on EFs before, but never on an EG. The JDM ITR front looks real smooth though.

Thats why you dont have one on your car.. Thanks for your opinion, even though no one asked you..

Anyway back on topic.. I have an integra radiator support on my car which made the whole conversion a whole lot cleaner.. I've seen people just use the top half of the integra support and weld it on to the existing civic support so they can use the stock radiator.. Looked like a mess and it was probably more work...

As for the fenders they are made from 2 integra and 2 civic fenders, cut and welded together.. Its a pretty good job so you can't even tell.. I think they flow pretty well with the rest of the body..
