Answer to the all questions:

Conversion:
It's a 99-00 conversion on a 97 Civic.

Folding mirrors:
I'm getting folding mirrors in the future.

Tint:
They removed the tint law in my state.

Back bumper:
I already have a 99-00 back bumper

Cost:
100$ - headlights (sold my ones for 80$)
50$ - both fenders SHIPPED (sold my ones for 100$)
70$ - front bumper SHIPPED
40$ - grill SHIPPED
500$ - carbon fiber hood SHIPPED (sold my old one for 100$)
300$ - paint front end (& buff entire car)

Altogether it cost me about 400$ for everything but the CF hood.

My entire front end (except for the hood) came from ebay. I bought a bunch of overstock parts from aftermarket oem design parts manufacturers. That's how I got it so cheap. Bumper has some defects but you get what you pay for.

Now all you need is a nice lip to compensate. Do you have any ideas yet or are you gonna keep it as is?

Nice. Cars like yours make me want to do the '99-'00 front conversion. I'm torn though.. I like both front ends. I love my fogs the way they are and I would have to get rid of them if I did a conversion.
