I personally like the way it looks. An old friend of mine did the same thing, looked real nice.

im in the process of doing it to mine i havent ran into that many probs. what i did was got the ek fenders cut the backs of them off and welded the del sol ones on there. so it could fit the door jam right and then i wraped them in plastic so when I went over it with fiberglass it wouldnt stick then you pop off your new fiber fenders. wham bam... It has been a long and not so simple task

Yeah.... I'm with Devils_Advicate on this one.
IMHO I'd leave the front end alone.......OR......If you have to do a front end swap, Throw an EG Front on the Sol and call it a day.

I have many pics of that swap saved on my Laptop and it's Noice!!!, EG > EK

i like the way of it, there was one in the first fast and the furious, first race scene going to park. it also had hydros or air ride. noticed it and loved it but would stick with stock. personal preference is choice.
