    something like this?






    imo it doesnt flow too well with the body, its a bit too big for it...
    youre going to need a front clip obviously... and a lot of custom fab.
    dont take anything i say srsly. its the interwebs.

    i've been asking around and a few people told me i had to get a 99 radiator support and had to take both the del sol fenders and the 99 fenders and cut them in half and weld the bumper side of the 99 to the door side of the del sol fenders... is that true

    For the amount of work that has to be done and the overall cost, I would either stick with what you have now or sell it and get a 99-00 Honda Civic.....As far as originality goes, it's been done before and IMO, it doesn't look very good.....But, to each their own....

    its not hard to install one, time consuming. Might be able to find some1 to do it if you strip all the other parts down only leaving the radiator support left.

    You have to mold half of the later and newer fenders together so it matches up with the door right?

    well....i had a '98 Civic Ex so everything was the same. MAYBE with a del sol you might have to. But I am not positive on that one.

    a buddy of mines back up boston, we did it on his del-slow....99+ radiator support, hood, and fenders, headlights. everything bolds, except the radiator support, some welding touch up....civic, integra, and del-slow all have the same measurements on its front chasis, just different on its radiator support because of headlight difference.....gl on this
