Has it been done before, the 94 integra front end bolted on to a 5g civic coupe? Do the fenders, hood, and front bumper bolt on??

I've seen it done on two Civic hatchbacks... I believe they just took an Integra front bumper, headlights, hood, and fenders and bolted it up to the Civic.
It looked pretty weird, but that was mostly because the front end was long and sexy looking but the rear was all short. I'd bet it would look better on a non-hatchback Civic though.
If you do it, be sure to get compatible parts for the front bumper... The front bumper, headlights, turn signals, and lip must be either all Gen3a (94-97) or all Gen3b (98-01). I have seen 94-97 headlights work with a 98-01 bumper, but it wasn't a great fit. The hood and fenders should all be the same fit for 94-01 though. If I were you, I'd go with the 94-97 bumper, it should be cheaper and easier to find those parts (since people like to do the Gen 3b conversion).
Let us know how it comes out if you decide to go for it. I'd be pretty interested to see it. :)

Here is an example of it on a hatch, it looks pretty clean minus all the other rice on the car....

I think it would look good on a coupe as well, the integra is just about as long as the 5g civic if not longer. The JDM Type R front headlights and bumper would look sexy though..Well the motor should ship out next Tues. so I can get my system in, header, and CAI. Anyone know a good place to get all that stuff??? Carbon fibre hood, type R front headlights, and fenders, hope that stuff wont cost me an arm, leg, and three toes.

I'm assuming you mean JDM when you say Type R... I've heard around $1500 is the usual price for the JDM front end conversion, but that was a while ago, so it might have gone down since then. I think there's also some companies making clones of it (ie same look, but not genuine Honda parts). I think the USDM and JDM Integra fenders are the same; if they are, then the JDM conversion isn't going to include fenders.
You could probably do the USDM Integra front end for like $500 + paint though (assuming you don't buy the parts from a Honda/Acura dealer).

I think I'm gonna do the integ front end once I get a motor and possibly a turbo kit. then I'll get the car repainted flat black. So many parts to buy...need more money

Why flat black?

I saw it on V8killa's EX, it looks pretty good with the clear coat over it. Before I get a paint job and body work done I'm gonna get some samples and go from there. That Integ Type R front end is gonna run around $2500, it may not be worth it. I could get O.E. fog lights and a carbon fibre lip and my car would look pretty good at a fraction of the cost.

Wow, the JDM front does look better on a Civic. I can't say the same about Integras, but apparently I'm in a very small minority.

The first one is just the jdm integra headlights, none of the rest, the guy had them custom molded into the car and not the rest of the front end. Besides why spend that much money, if you want to look like an integra that bad go buy one

erm, it would be nice, without that big ass wing :)

yea it would look clean but i agree, lose the wing.
I've seen an Integra front end on a Civic here in Colorado. It was black and was heading south on I-25. I like the Type-R front on the hatch way better. I also like that CRX Titus.

you have to chang to an integra core support (radiator support) to do this conversion. then every this bolts on.
ps.... using fiberglass fenders is best so you can sand off the body line that the integrahas ... because eg civic does not have the same lines.

i'm planning on doing this conversion and the fenders dont bolt right up.....the fenders dont line up with the doors. anyone know where you have to cut the fenders at and weld together. ???? and help would be appriciated. thanx,
Hey what's up I am new to the site I have a blk. 99 si. I wanted to put the ITR conversion on my car, but the shop I went to said I would have to cut my frame and weld on an integra frame to do the conversion.I just wanted to know if they were just saying that or if it's true just let me know thanks.
