The front end will fit but you will need

99-00 SI Bumper, Headlights, Fenders, Hood.

The rear bumpers IIRC are the same.

The 99-00 Civic has different (slightly different) headlights fenders and hood/bumper. You have to swap them all out .

^yep idk why honda did that, cause they look the same from a distance. But not when u start really comparing parts. The rears are a little different too, from 96-98 & 99-00 but from ur sig I wouldn't worry about that:goodjob:.....

Yeah man. I did a Front end conversion on my EJ-7. It was easy as hell. Just a little fitment adjustment with the hood and fenders. Dont knwo how you feel about aftermarket body parts but check out Certifit.com They're in Forrest Park. I got the hood, bumper, and both fernder gor like $150. You can get some nice head Lamps off of Ebay. Just make sure its OEM.

i just did that conversion not too long ago with an extra si front i had laying around..it fits just fine.make sure you have the whole front end though the models arent universal at all.good luck with it.:goodjob:

[H1Cblacknight]

You stlll looking to do the front end? I have the fenders and bumper for ya! PM me.

[ejchris]

it will fit....i have a 4 door si

[H1Cblacknight]

4 door si? hybrid shit huh. pic?

[Humphrizzle]

in order to make it fit perfectly you should buy a 99-00 radiator core support?

[SixSquared]

^^Methinks that's not necessary, and a lot of extra work. Not 100% sure, but I think the front ends are close enough to where the rad support switch isn't necessary

[Humphrizzle]

it's not necessary but it does fit better with the 99-00 core support.

[VickNotic]

theres no need for teh 99-00 core support, the 96-97 core support will do just fine. i've never heard of that one before. but imo i wouldn't want to convert anything form original unless, it's making 2kwhp 8D 96 can be made to look way better then the 99+ but watever front end u do, do it right :goodjob:

[H1Cblacknight]

The core support does not have to be switched. If you notice the two metal tabs with holes in them on the front of the core support, the bumper is attached there with two plastic push pin. bout 3/8 inch wide. If you notch those with a die grinded and re drill new holes. Your 99-00 bumper will fit.! DO NOT CHANGE THE CORE SUPPPORT. If welded in wrong.....well your asking for a list of issues
