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?

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

actually it looks nice if you install it correctly. maybe thats just me. but they are nice bumpers on usdm fronts.
