I was wondering if it is indeed possible to do a front end conversion off an 04-05 on an 01-03? I really like the revised front end better than the earlier one cause it looks alot newer and is just sportier. Also, is it possible to swap the rear bumper with the conversion off a newer civic? How bout the rear lights off a newer one?

Expensive dude very expensive. Not worth it at all. You need the hood, headlights, fenders, and its not a bolt up its alot of customer work.

Sure they are interchangable across the platform 01-05. I dont know how well a 04-05 bumper will fair on an 01-03 cause it lips out on the sides which matches the curves of the 04-05 where as the 01-03 are pretty straight and plain looking.

The rear bumper will fit directly. (My cousin did with his 02 civic). Maybe the "bumper bar" of the 01-03 is a little larger, but that isn't a problem.

I have an 05 bumper and color matched trunk trim on my 03 sedan it looks exactly like an 05 from behind. It swapped perfectly.
