ive got a crazy idea

im not sure if this will work, BUT last night on my drive home i was thinking about what my cl would look like with a bb4(92-96) prelude front end. carbon hood, jdm lamps bumper and fog lights w/ a nice carbon front lip. i know a couple guys in miami that have put 99 civic fronts on eg hatches (92-95) and they look sick. i know you need a set of fenders, cut em in half and do the same to the original ones at the rest is simple. imthinking that this should work(in theory), SO when i get to my cousins crib im gonna measure the width of his hood on his lude and if its something plausible then i am gonna do it. as soon as i get a chance im gonna do a photoshop but im at work right now
LATE!

Sounds like way too much work and $$. If you think you can swing it after the measurments, go for it, it's better than an accord front end

its more costly to hook up my cls front end. my front bumper needs to be painted, my driver side headlight is fucked up, even after intense treatment from my boy its still not like the new one on the passenger side(due to an earlier accident not my fault). those silly headlights are expensive as fuck every i call and they're not exactly available evrywhere either.*plus i wanna black house them, and throw some yellow foglights down there too. i can get a jdm prelude nose cut w/ the headlights for like $350 and i dont take the headlights probably like 175, and i can get these off ebay....

chill with these being WAYYY sicker than the factory jdm lamps on the prelude.
OH! and they prelude carbon hood is only 275 locally through my job. unlike a mean 6 for the cl hood.
add on a nice 94-95 accord(fits lude front end)carbon typeR front lip(which flows smoothly with the oem sides and rear on the cl)for the same as an UNPAINTED wingswest front lip for the CL. sounds like a pretty powerful argument to me...

no body work is gonna make the hood on a lude wider, the only way to do it is to either cut the cl hood and a lude hood w/welding and extra sheet metal it can be done in theory but chill with that mission OR i'ld have to have a custom fiberglass or carbon hood made that fits the lude front bumper design but is 2.5 inches wider. its not totally out of the question but im not going on that mission forget about it
