search google, yes the JDM front ends are differnt then US.
JDM front end swap= over done

i dont mean to be an idiot or anything but anyone that reads this, could you tell me what is so great about having jdm? why not just go with the usdm if it is exactly like the jdm part? i understand most of it but everyone wants JDM. imo i think jdm is over done but then again thats my opinion. im not saying jdm parts are garbage. they are actually really nice. its just that everyone wants jdm. but as for the conversion, ive seen it done and it looks really strange. i wish i wouldve taken a picture of the car. it didnt look bad but not nice either lol. if you know what i mean. i say go for it and be different

 

[Steven.]

im sure i have a pic somehwer on my copmputer, give me a min to find it

the boxy ness is what makes a EF a EF. Most people dont like the shape of them and say they look ugly but then you rape them in a race and they are amazed.

The only thing JDM would do is a DC2 front end on a USDM Integra. Other than that anything else I would just RHD convert the entire car. Or just get one that has been imported from Japan. But I'm not that big into the JDM.

will just the EG hood and headlights looks better than the whole front end on the EF??? like to do something diffrent but clean at the same time.

 

[Steven.]

plus it all wont just botl up.

i have a pic of a 6th gen front, on a 4th gen hatch.

its ugly as hell.

Rounded front end+boxy car=no good

fuglier than fugly just my opinion on that.

 

[shoemaker617]

i got a pic too:


i like this better:

 

[plazmascivic]

ok why the hell would u want to do that? that is like putting a curvy bodykit on a 4th gen it just doesnt flow with the car at all, keep it simple. also the teggy front end doesnt look too bad it looks a lot better than the 5th or 6th gen FE

 

[Steven.]

no the teg front end, looks to big.
any rounded front end looks bad.

 

[FRODO]

maybe one from an old Golf wouldnt look bad?

 

[kyle10182]

i like the DC front end best out of everything I've seen.

i would never do it on an EF. But I would do it on a EG....if i was really bored.

 

[91sib16]

So there's really no option on doing a front end conversion on an EF??? Is the JDM EF front end diffrent from the USDM EF front end??? Wanna do something diffrent from every one else,

 

[Steven.]

yes, the JDM SIR frotn end is differnt.

the DOHC ZC front end is something you dont see that much.

ive never seen a USDM EF either.
