JDM Front End Conversion 99% Completed

as per request, will do a write up on my quick JDM front end conversion



JDM HID Headlamps
JDM Fenders
JDM Bumper (Mugen Prof) series used
JDM rebar (remodified)
JDM Sized Carbon Fibre Hood
Removed items:
Lower Extended Engine cover
North American Fenders
North American Bumper
North American Front Rebar
North American Headlamp
North American Hood
North American Hood Latch holder
Modified items:
Relocated Hood Latch
Slight bendage on the rad support to allow JDM Headlamp to fit
Cut out for relocation of Hood Latch on rad support (by doing this, there is no need to replace to the JDM Rad Support)
Apart from the list above I think that is about it?
The way that I partook is probably a quick short cut way instead of replacing the rad support and in my mind I think it is the cheapest route to go

As for the rear:




used
JDM sized Mugen Fitted rear bumper
JDM sized Mugen Trunk Finisher
Removed
North American Rear Bumper
North Amiercan Re-Bar

Let me finish off my BBQ here and will see what else I forgot!

That is absolutely beautiful. I'm wanting a blue fit, but more and more I'm loving the white. I used to have a white civic, and I'm thinking I might have to go back to white. The conversion is so clean, just awesome.

now that is one gorgeous Fit! Are those Mugen sideskirts and rear wing?

I'm gonna see about using the USDM spec front lip w/Mugen sides/rear. I think it'll be an interesting twist!
