i agree, the frame looks fuxored in the pic...

You need to take that bitch to a frame machine & have it checked..
A new front end will cost you about $1k painted w/ headlights OEM...

Frame time costs a lot :-/

Looks pretty cool actually. I would have some custom "rip" effects of EBP go into the CF front end to help it blend a bit. It just looks kinda strange with the staight line at the door.

Yea now I see how funny that front end looks... Anyway that's what the car looks like right now. I just ordered ion blue fake CTR headlights ($100 shipped), brand new one piece radiator support ($100 shipped). I'm about to buy both fenders, the hood, and the front bumper off a '00 Si (Painted EBP-not a scratch on it)($745 shipped-you think it's a good price?). Also buying a stock valve cover and A/c condenser off one of TR members ($125). All I got left is a small hose for power steering, radiator, and a windshield. Thanks a lot guys.

P.S. lowoctane I appreciate you making that photochop for me, thanks a lot.

Take a picture of the side motor mounts as that is the frame rails and also take a pic of the strut towers since it looks like they are wrinkled up and may need to be cut, straightened and welded...

you're going to want to get the front parts painted, and that is too much for the bumper, hood, and fenders. they will need to be faded in most likely.
