ok i know plenty of people are going to jump on my ass for this one lol...
and trust me i read the DIY on jdmuniverse.com, and other web sites.

but i was wondering what is the easiest way to do the conversion while keeping the 96-98 radi support?

i saw the cutting of the radi support on jdmU, but also heard about modifying the front bumper somehow and it being better that cutting the radi support...

but idk which one to do lol
thanks

The way I've seen it done before is cutting part of the tabs off the radiator support. That was on jdmcivic.com and it's been down for a while now. I haven't seen the modification of the bumper technique yet.

best way to do it is to not do it at all


96-98 front end FTW

but to each their own so good luck, bud!

i hope it works out lol.

and if anything i can always slap on the old front,
but might just save it for the track.
