Does anyone know how hard is it to install a 99-00 civic front end on a 96-98 civic. Are there any crazy mods involved. Do you guys know how much they run for?

About the only help I can give you is, I had a buddy that did it and he said it wasn't that hard just took a little time. I've never done it so I can't tell if its easy but it was worth it in my opinion. Look really good and you can tell a huge difference. He got all his stuff for like $400 off of a wrecked civic. So try hitting up the salvage yard.

Yeah..I'm doing a conversion right now on my 96 to 99-00.. just have to cut here and there once or twice and for the fender and your good to go.. fenders and hood line up perfect with no modding.. just that front bumper.. take your time and it will come out clean!!

certifit is alright... my front end is all certifit, but it took a while for me to get it how it is now though. when i first put it on it was horrible to the max

is not hard, i did it to my 97 hatch. the only trouble i ran into was getting the si grill to fit right other then that if you have all the part everything bolts up. tip for you is not to tight up all the bolts right away cuz you'll going to have to wiggle some of the parts around if you want clean lines then tighten it when you like what you see.

I did the 99-00 front end conversion and the only thing I had to do to fit everything was to bend the two other metal clips that hold up the front bumper.
