you need to get a 90-93 integra hood cable cuz the conversion requires a longer hood cable cuz the latch is out a little farther

im hoping your talking about a jdm itr front end right

You pieced together the conversion? Do you have all the brackets and the bumper support?

You're going to need the 90-93 Integra cable like Airon says. I believe there is a way to swing it if you flip the latch around, but Im not too sure about that method.

If I were you, I'd ditch the fiberglass and get metal. Fiberglass cracks easily and usually doesnt fit too well.
