hey, i just did a 99-00 front end conversion on my 98 civic. i was wondering if you guys have this same problem as me

since you have to cut off the tabs near the headlights and grille, my bumper doesnt feel like its on very well, and there is a gap between the bumper and headlights.

any other advice or pics of your front end conversions would be cool.

 

96-98 front end looks better imo. but yeah, i heard the only way you will be able to get it to fit 100% perfect is that you use all oem stuff. you should check out the honda tech write up

hmm...i just put the bumper tabs under the tabs on the raditor support..to fix the headlight bumper gap...take off the bumper and you will see two long bracket under each headlight..adjust those so the bumper can fit between the brackets and the headlights..good luck and 99/00 fronts are great, my hatch is 96 (see my sig for pics of my car)

 

This would be the very, very, very, very, very last person on this website to take exterior-modification advice from.
