Well from what i can tell from alot of people haha,

I think this my topic might get deleted because I didn't search enough but is the conversion on this website like the legit OEM metal one or is it fiberglass? From what I'm reading it's metal but on the top of the page it has all this info about "Duraflex" fiberglass. I just want to make sure because it's pretty cheap, $900 w/o shipping.

(I don't know if this is suppose to go in this section or somewhere in the marketplace)

sorry if this $h1t is over posted haha

It doesn't say what parts are included..I can't tell what the hell they're selling from the description...
the whole thing would consist of the bumper, fenders, hood, and headlights, also the bumper support & reinforcement, and radiator support..

* Glossy black gel coat finish
* Shiny, high quality metal mesh
* Hardware kit
* Installation guide
* Reduced damage rate up to 75%
* Extremely affordable, roughly half the cost of Urethane

*Cars depicted are highly modified for show which may include molding or adding to the original piece. Parts such as lights, splitters, canards, paint, and others accessories are not included unless specified in the product description.

*This conversion converts your US Integra's front end into the JDM Integra. This conversion includes a JDM Integra OEM Front Bumper, JDM Integra Spoon Style Front Lip, JDM Integra OEM Fenders, JDM Integra OEM Hood, and JDM Integra OEM Grille. All body panels come standard in fiberglass.
it's weird because they say metal mesh (honestly have no idea what that means), but it doenst matter because i forgot all about the headlights, and the supports. thanks !

yea, if you want to do it correctly your gonna have to take out the old usdm radiator support and weld in the jdm radiator support. so if you looking to do a jdm front end be sure not to forget about the shit the panels connect to =P

haha honestly I'd feel more comfortable with metal than duraflex though.. since my whole car is metal it'd be funny if just the front was duraflex. plus no mounts!

I would call them up. Their kit might not require core support.
thats what I'm thinking... seems like it would be a totally different way to swap your front end. Seems like a really neat idea, but the "commerical" is teribly cheezy, and i'd like tosee some real reviews...

Your car is not all metal. The front and rear bumper covers are urethane.
well i know that not my whole car is metal, but out of curiosity what parts are metal and non? I'm still new to this some of this (exterior materials) :???:
