I cant deside what I want to do for a front end on my 95 civic, I have been looking at pictures of this conversion and I like it. I already have a set of 94+ integra fenders I can play with. I know you have to install the Integra core support, Install the hood (bolts right on), install the head lights to core support, install front bumper.... but then the fenders is what is going to kill me i think, does anyone know any websites where they show exactly how to do this, how and where they cut, and how they smoothed it in. I think if I just cut like a foot back on both fenders and laid down a MIG weld across the weld, and spread out some bondo it sanded it for a few days it would look good but i need some pictures and some confidence.
My core support on my civic is already a little banged up so I was going to swap it anyways, my hood has dents, my bumper is beat, my headlights are fogged so since I have to do everything anyway, this doesnt seem like to much more work.
again any websites where people did this conversion will help
thanks

If I were you, I would have just bought some fiberglass fenders to play with. Later if you wanted to upgrade to metal... you'd at least have a perfect set of fiberglass fenders to base your modifications off of. Why worry about welding when you could just hack, sand and bondo.

fiberglass fenders would be easier but my buddy has them on his teggy and they cracked just from driving and being cold. if i do it, i only want to do it once and do it right (or try to) does anyone know any sites or write ups about this being done?

Definitly sounds better than a faggy body kit.

Too many people think their nasty eyesore is an original work of art... :screwy:
Doesn't a nice Tsunami lip look 100% cleaner? Lips are cheaper than kits too.

Best looking lips are stock JDM ones or like a wings west RS kit IMO but I do like body kits, I dont think a body kit on a half integra half civic would look right though...

oh.. I consider lips as body kits... cuz they're "kits" for the body of the car :)

Well if you look at the fenders the civic has the moulding built into the fender, integra doesnt. im not positive on the other body lines and such.
