I have a 94 Civic EX Cpe and want to do a front end conversion to a 96-98 front end. Anyone know someone who has done this or knows of a write up on it. And if it will even work. Also will the 96-98 rear bumper work for my car?

Thanks in advance.

I am pretty certain that you have to customize the fenders.

That's a given.. there would def. be custom body work involved.. just not sure the extent of it.

Good luck on that. I think there is a body line in the fender where as the door is smooth, so where does that body line go? You are probably better off using factory eg fenders and working with the headlights and those.

thanks for the write up mrsatisfiher

I think that is little more work than I want to do. I wonder what kinda fabing that I would have to use my stock fenders?

you have to use both fenders and weld them together then smooth it all out, aswell as use a radiator support for a 96-98... doing the conversion really isn't hard, but making it look like it came from the factory that way is. i can do it, for a good price, but i wont guarantee it'll look like its factory.

stevedave454, do you think there would be a way to just keep my stock fenders and do the rest?
