Jdm front end conversion?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew what it takes for a jdm front end conversion. what I'm wondering is, do you only need to front bumper? or do headlights, fenders, hood and bumper all need to be changed?

I'm contemplating between getting a fit sport, or LX and then add my own aero parts, and keyless entry and such. which is the better deal?

thanks for your help.

You need the whole front end; headlights, bumper, hood, fenders, brace, etc.

im kinda facinated about this whole "JDM" thing going on in the US.

Why would u want to change the front end of a brand new car?
The USDM Fits look damn good as well... keep it the same man!

LX vs Sport - check out prices on how much it would cost you to get the lips, keyless etc. = if its the same, just buy the sport straight - if it saves you time or money, and you dont mind doing the work..... go for the LX

Its because of a few things....It does make the car look different, and its a rare setup. It shortens the nose and makes the car look smaller and I LIKE the jdm look.

Its done because none of the jdm headlights, lips, grills or hoods work on a USDM fit, if you really want to do alot of work to the car if you drop the coin on a jdm front end you open yourself to a much larger parts catalog of parts to dress the car up with.
