sum1 where i live doin a 96 conversion to a 92 and buyin oem parts for his other 92 civic "LS" said www.certifit.com is a good place. for each fender it was $25, and the hood was $45 or $50.

he hasnt converted front end yet so dunno how much price diff that will be.
and so far the parts section of their site does NOT work. all areas but parts work.

definitely check the local junkyards first... theres so many civics there that either have destroyed rears or fronts... jus buy the undamaged parts.. you might even get away with it already painted and the same color.. =)

the guy who told me about the site and has an ls engine in his 5th gen 4dr, can kiss my ass, he wants 2g for his other integra ls motor (500 more if he installs)

$500 off ebay = ls motor no tranny
few hours-half a day = my installation time

I've seen a lot of really good deals for this stuff on eBay, shipping can get you though.

too bad you don't live in sacramento. theres this place where i bought aftermarket oem style parts from. Its called Levans on stockton blvd. By the way im almost done with my 99-00 conversion on my 97 civic ex; still trying to get the perfect fit for the lights and bumper.

what do you mean, still trying to get the perfect fit, did it not line up right automatically?

the lights didn't fit perfectly so i had to drill a new hole into the top radiator support so i could put the screw in place with the lights.
