I find tons of stuff for 4g civics, but nearly nothing for 3g's. I was wondering how much of a change some things are such as
corner lights
tail-lights
bumpers
How much difference are these from the older civics?

The clear lights are taken care of..
Now for the tail-lights:
I saw a picture of a 4g hatchback with the euro tails. I noticed the 2 outer pieces are almost (if not) identical to my 86 civic HB. When I was messing around with my tail-lights, I noticed a welded piece on each side of the center plastic piece with slots for lights. Does anyone have access or resources for me to check out if a swap from a 3g to a 4g tail-light system would work or not? I don't ever remember seeing a 4g HB in my area so I am clueless.
Or does anyone have any measurements of each section of the lights?
thanks

Stuff like that just doesn't transfer over.
The wheels and brakes are about the only things that you can swap over.
Besides why would you defile a 3G with altezza tailights? :lol:
