How cheap do u think i can do a 99 Front and Rear Conversion?
Head lights, Hood, Front Fenders,*found some on Ebay for $1.00*
Grill, Bumper, aNd for Rear... Trunk, 99 sedan tails, and Bumper

now will the 99 Sedan tails Fit in the 97 Rear Fenders? if so, are they RED Top and Clear Bottom? or vice versa?

I know the 99 civic tails and bumpers look MUCh better than the 97 does. so i am seriously considering doing this. Junk Yard i can get some good body parts, and get them painted OR since i have all my parts still, i can learn to paint ;) it cant be that hard

LITE coats i know

well if anyone has done it,*and i know it has been done for less than 350 for front* please help out, also let me know what u think!

i think it will look sweet.
that 99 oem bumper :bow: :love: :hypnotic:

and the tails are sweet looking

also what u guys think about these tails

tails are better imo...i hate that orange crap

the conversion is easy...just bolt on and drive away (paint matching of course)
If I had more money a few months ago I could have done it too.

Getting the parts for the right price is just a matter of where you get them. Ebay might have good deals or it might not. Same goes for the jyard.

you also would need the front radiator support from a 99-00
