I don't know how to do it, but I know you need:
- Rad. support
-your fenders welded to end of civic fenders
- bumper
- hood
-headlights
-corners
-etc.
I really don't like the way it looks, i mean it doesn't look that bad, but I say just go stock, or a close to stock kit, like the forementioned WW. Hope I could help!!!

I consider it my idea because I was talking about it since I had 2 posts. That was months ago. Why buy the boxy front for 800 when you can get the newer one for $575.00(what I got it for). Anyways, no one else would have even thought about it if I never started it up. Not trying to sound like a jackass, but its the only way to say it.

Well it was never your idea to begin with. Oh and that "BOXY" front is a unique JDM look. ITs for ppl that likes JDM stuff. Why did u buy a rex the first time?

Considering I got the idea from looking at all these Civic's running around, thinking "Man, these people and their new shit!, I must have it!"
And mind you, this is when I had an Accord-last Summer, and never seeing it on the net or otherwise, I'd say it is a original idea. I had always wanted a CRX and the Accord fucked up, so I got one. I got to thinking. The CRX is based off a Civic, and alot of parts from gen 4,5,6 Civics and gen 2, and 3 Tegs are interchangeable, could I put the front from a 5 or 6th gen Civic on it? Well, the body is rounded, so I need a rounded front! It compelled me so much, I was was able to find a pic of it, and compared engine bay areas,bolting points, and other things with my car next to a 97 Civic. This past weekend I bought the nessesary parts(not head lights). And people can stick with the box if they want to, but the 96-98 front was made for the CRX.
