I love how the front looks, soo mean!

I'm currently looking to do the conversion, just the front for now. How much you think the whole front conversion would be, about $5000-$6000??

does it overlap or just bolts in different places?

the easiest way for sum1 to get this is to look a coupe and a sedan side by side... doesn't matter Si or not... once u look at it closely u will see the the part of the fender that bolts up near the door doesn't match... so unless u modify these fenders it's not happening... in theory the hood/bumper/etc... will bolt up no problem after the fender part is fixed... never tested tho...

i hope that answers the question b/c i have no other way of explaining it...

about 2500 - 3000 but without the mugen grill + mugen lip. u'll have all the other OEM parts though. they won't be painted so add your cost for paint.

mugen grill is over 300
mugen lip is 450
they are both unpainted.

finished product is in my sig.

are you talking about the mugen Si grill? or the mugen JDM civic grill? I dont see a problem with the JDM mugen grill fitting on the Type r bumper, but I really dont thing the USDM mugen si grill will fit.

That front end looks so much infinitely better to me than the ones we get...

It's like an S15 (only available in Japan and looks incredible) compared to an S14 (available in US but only looks "meh") .

Why the hell does America always get neutered versions of cool Japanese cars?!?

We should offer muscle cars over there... but only with V6's...
