Default question on ef9 front end conversion fitment

would the jdm ef9 front end (hood, headlights, bumper, radiator support, fenders) fit all hatches 88-91. i know theres some slight difference between the 88-89 and 90-91 hatches, but what if i was replacing all of the mentioned, would it bolt on perfectly? or would i need to pick up the front end for my year?

the chassis throught the years is the same so the fitment is not a worry. the 91 front will fit an 88 body and vice versa

I have a 91 Si USDM & bought the JDM SiR front & it's not completely the same.

With no DOT specs they don't need a front bumper reinforcement, for one. Also BEFORE I had a wreck I tried to fit all the pieces on and every thing was ok except the JDM head lights were not lining up right and the hood was about 5/8" to far forward .

So after the wreck I found a body shop that had everything to pull it out & line it up and wouldn't rape me on the price .
