Well...uh...putting a very square front end on a bubble isn't the best idea. Shows some imagination, but first of all get rid of those horrible fenders and get some sidemarkers, then some sidemoldings and sideskirts would make the side of the car look 10x better. But I am still not feeling that front end on that car. I have seen that front on a 92-95 hatch, but they did a ton of body work to that thing.
sideskirt and moldings were put on few days ago.. havent had a change to retake new pics... yea that front end wasnt the best idea but i just wanted to finish it for my brother you know.. he got locked up so i just wanted to send him a pics of the end results..

Just a '99-'00 front end, not a Si front end.

And I'd advise you sell that front end soon.. a '99-'00 front end will look a lot better.

it doesnt look horrible..just what the others were saying..its too boxy of a front end to put on a bubble hatch. Might be able to be pulled off on an EF/ED hatch..but you did well trying. Might look better with fresh paint and a lip. who knows?

It looks sick on that white coupe! Do you just buy the ITR front end conversion (hood, bumper, fenders, etc) and is it a direct bolt on? or if there some fabrication needed?

fabrication was needed.. had the back half of the itr fenders cut and front half of a civic cut..

well since it looks better on a coupe.. the front end is forsale..:D

I'd think it'd look worse on a 4th gen. It'd be way too wide and would look way too modern and round compared to the old 4th gen.

None of these front ends from totally different cars just bolt on. Even a '99-'00 Civic front end on a '96-'98 needs minor modification to make everything fit flush.

I've seen this conversion "done right" and finished and it still doesn't look good. The car being finished doesn't change that the rear is way too big for the front.
