Default 92-95 civic front end on del sol

i posted up a while ago about my del sol getting stolen and how i was going to put the civic front end on....well, 2 months later, it's almost done...fenders should be done by tomorrow and on..

before:




after:




it may not look like it, cuz all the colored spots that were from sanding and bondo show through the paint, but while i did the front end i also took care of every other body imperfection while i was at it...and there were a lot

flame it or love it, but im proud of my work

looks good so far. better hope the headlights and bumper are aligned right.

btw, this belongs in the Appearance / Cosmetic forum.

You've just shown you've never removed your own bumper before.

Is it just a bolt on affair? What are you going to do with the body lines of the fender (the moldings)?

bumper doesnt look bolted in because uh...it isnt... there's no fenders yet to bolt them to

the fenders are being cut and welded together - the first about 4 or 5" of the fender will be civic (to fit the shape of the corner lights) and the rest del sol (so i still have the lines of the body)

the headlights mike look misaligned, but they're not - i'm waiting for the fenders to be on before i bolt down the hood - so in the pics the hood is just floating there, it kind of slides over the headlights a little

yes you have, youve never taken the front bumper off your car, cause if you have, you would then know the bumper is held up in the corners by the fenders by nuts and and a clip, there for a post like that shows us you never removed the front end because if you would have you woldnt have wasted your time trying to flame on someones hard work

btw: its looks a million times better, are you keeping it flat black
