97 bumper conversion to 98+
I read online for bumper conversions, looks like its just a simple swap of old to new bumpers and headlights/corner lights? Does anyone know if there needs to be anytype of cutting or molding ..etc..necessary? if anyone has pics please post them up, thnx alot.
btw, im going to do both , the back and front bumpers...

the back bumper matters if it's a 4dr or a 2dr because a 4dr has a trunk and the back bumper is shaped differently because of that. a 2dr has a hatch, and the back bumper is shaped differently because of that.
itz a simple bolt on w/o paint matching

Ah, well here's a pic of my 98-01 conversion that I just completed. It was a BITCH because I kept trying to put it on and then finding out I would keep needing another new part. You will need:
98-01 front bumper
98-01 headlights
98-01 bumper/turn signal lights
98-01 brackets/supports to hold the turn signals
Here's my car:
kind of bad pictures, but you get the idea.

wow, looks nice from this angle, but pics are slightly hard to see...so i guess i also need brackets/support...hmm..didnt know about that part...
my friend has a wrecked 99 integra thats teh same color as mine, i was wondering how long it would take to remove his front bumper? and is the brackets/supports in back of the bumper lights?

5-10 minutes ONLY removing ..right? and youre talking about just one bumper at a time takes that long.....i have to pop the hood to get to the bolts? does anyone have step by step instructions for where the bolts are located or have the pics of them? i dont know if its the same as my honda accord i use to have, but the accord had hella shit to take off and unclip just to get to my bumper lights to switch to clear corners
