Civtegra Front end conversion... phase 2 pics!

after two days of work the parts are all swapped over... next weekend it will be properly fitted, just not enough time today, and sprayed with some paint of some sort... harder than anticipated!! not recommended!!!

looking good man. i like. would you say it is a hard thing to do?

ummm very... it still doesnt fit right

meh, not bad....as far as converstions go, thats probably the best looking one on a forth gen becasue the lines match pretty good, when people do 3rd gen front ends on 4th gen civics, it looks stupid, the lines don't match....

Good work bro! Glad to see you doing well with this project. It looks like you have everything under control.

hood rubs, so i'm going to do a cust fibreglass hood that is suicided, and pinned, will do the bodykit next weekend, as it will require alot of work

looks good man
looks like everything fits tightly to me
keep up the good work man

any major cutting required or all parts bolt on ?
im really intrested in knowing cause i have a 90 that i would love to cut up :)
so far pixs look great make sure to post some pixs when painted

i'd like it better without the z3s

i was just gonna say that
i see the stock fenders are in the last pix
would they fit or did u prefer the z3 fenders.

i had to cut up the fenders to get them to fit, and i had fiberglass z3s, and i would rather work with that than the metal stock ones... i'm not crazy into them either

Lookin good Evan, I'll have to check it out sometime soon, Now slap some paint on it and get that bitch ready for the Imports only Show in June.

I know you have plans as far as a body kit, but did you ever consider leaving it as stock? I think it would look super clean if say you mold over the Z3s (I know what you mean about fiberglass as opposed to metal) and use the stock integra bumper, maybe the 92-93 integra bumper. No kit but with a full conversion (not just fitted headlights like my car) would be really nice and would stand out just the same, if not more. Just a thought though.

i agree, nice clean stock look would be sweet :)

ok... so clean look it is, and brad, thats what i'm aiming for, but it needs alot of work

I really look forward to seeing how yours comes out!!

I agree with you there but I think this might be one exception to the 3rd gen Integra front on the 4th gen Civic body (at least I like it anyway :) )

has to be my favorite, however i have seen many attempts at this that have failed and it looks awfull

As for the bottom pic the problem with that is, it is a round type front end on a square shaped car. It dont look right. IMO I much prefer the conversion you are doing I think it will look great when your done.

well.... went to my buddys shop lastnight and well yea... 3 hours later i had my 90 teg lights roughed in, they will be finished on monday or tuesday probably but i figured since phreaze did the front... i'd post the rear here for now :)

please note.. its ROUGH cuz we ran outta time

I've seen that INTGR8-ed or whatever hatch on cardomain and I still think it's a beautiful car...

Can't wait to see the finished product of your cars...

Definitely agree!

1PhatCX-Good choice! That should look really clean when it's all smoothed out. Any other plans for the body?

thanx man :)
best thing is they were plug and play!

rest of the plans include shaving the handles, getting the body straight again, then paint

Sounds like a winner to me! You see, where I live, conversions aren't as accepted anymore. But without something 100% custom, it's hard to say you are original. I think body kits and conversions are still cool as long as they are done in good taste. Everyone thinks my EF is crap now, but what the heck, it was my creation from start to finish. I still like it.

Derek, I hate to say it but the back of your car looks like a geo metro now with those lights. maybe it just me?? :screwy:
