I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

ok i need a hugggggge favor. i got into an accident not too long ago (in the EK, not CR-X) and bent up the radiator support / metal part the head lights and hood latch bolt into. i picked up a 99-00' front end for like $300 but am having trouble getting everything to align correctly. i pounded everything back into place as best i could but i have no model to go from. can someone, anyone with an ej/ek help me by popping your hood, taking pics of mounting points and positioning and such? the front bumper sags a bit and am having trouble correctly mounting it.

thanks!

SAMMMME problem i'm having, but i didn't have a model/picture when i hammered everything back into place, so i just needed to see where a majority of everything bolted onto.

youre best bet is to replace the rad support...i sold my hood recently that fit perfect on my car and the guy that bought it tried putting it on a car with a tweaked rad support that was fixed and it didtn fit on one side..so save the hassle and replace it.
