Default 92 to 95 Front end conversion

Hey all,
I have a 94 civic dx coupe and i was wondering if its possible to change all the front end body parts, (Hood, bummper, headlights, fenders) to that of a 94 to 01 integra? does anyone know if i can do this or how to do this?

It's possible, but as far as I know it involves cutting and welding for at leas the fenders. I think the radiator support will need welded in, too. As far as everything else, it's pretty much bolt-on I believe.

Ive seen a couple EG hatches rolling around with the Teggy front end, both locals. It looked to be a pretty bolt on thing. The rad support would need to be welded in though.

From what I've heard, you pretty much cut both fenders in half and weld the front half of the integra fender to the rear half of the civic fender. I'm not sure how correct that is, having never done it, though. Other than that, it should pretty much be a bolt-on affair, like plethoric said.

The kid near me had a complete front end still painted its original color on his and there was no marks on the fenders. Still looked factory painted red on his black car.

ive done this swap i had a 94 hatchback and put a 2001 integra front end on it,
you will need the complete front end from the teg, including the radiator support,

I stand corrected then. I was always under the impression the fenders wouldn't bolt straight to a civic, but like I said, no real experience with it here.

But the radiator support will either need modified or replaced altogether.

How does it not match up at the doors? like the bolt holes dont line up or the door jams? how do i overcome that problem? and is the core support the top part that holds the radiator and head light in or the bottom part that holds the radiator in? Thanks.
