    dont think it's possibile for the coupe.
    they dont have any common features
    like the fenders, bumpers, hood are all
    different from the coupe to the sedan.
    have seen the sedan done before and
    it is bad ass.

    ill check there.

    Could care less bout the coupe. I think it's ugly and hated civics cause of it.

    The sedan is so much better in every way and brought my interest back.

    It may be cheaper to put a Canadian CSX front.



    My favorite SI, with a sick conversion...
