Default kinda long but please read

hey guys, the coolest thing just happened today. my dad and i were drivin around when an integra with the jdm front end conversion passed by us in residential. i of course was freakin out and my dad was wonderin what was goin on, i told him that it was an integra and he didn't believe me (he bought me mine, he knows what they look like) so i showed him online that it was. needless to say he was impressed, he then started talking about gettin me that front end because my car is the oldest one in the house (97) and he wants it to look the sharpest. so now i am askin you guys were i could find the best deal. i tried ebay but everything i typed in didn't come up with what i wanted. please help...

That reminds me of a time my father and I were in a Sam's parking lot and saw one. He refused to believe it was an Integra.

Sounds like you folks have some spare money, if a '97 is your oldest car and pops is willing to dump money into it because of that.

Sorry, don't know where to get them cheapest, just be sure to get an OEM metal kit. There are lots of cheap fibreglass kits out there, but they don't look as good and aren't as strong as the original metal.

All good leads so far... nice work gentlemen.

And yes, definintely spend the money for the OEM metal kits.
The fibreglass rip-offs fit horribly.
