Yes the JDM front end will bolt on. I think the kit phase died already.

JDM kit= Thief magnet
WW kit= Cop magnet

Take your pick.

maybe an accord lip (200 installed) and spend the other 2300 on something that will actually help like suspension or tranny or ENGINE work.

don't blow your wad on cosmetic **** mayne.

Now that crx looks sweet!

BTW, that whole front clip you are getting from hmotors includes the motor, tranny, etc, right?

but the clip should have front brakes and the jdm front end, possible the cluster and dash (heater control unit). then you could sell the b16 ?
