Default need help from you jdm junkies

so earlier this year i posted pics about my brothers jdm db8 conversion, this sunday he will be picking up a jdm rhd front clip from socal, if any of you guys information on how to install, i.e information on using the jdm clip or if it is a straight swapping of parts, i know close to little about doing the swap but anyone with information that could help plz pm me or post ty, the s2ki crowd has always been helpful. ty

i know that the firewall will have to be relocated but thats about as far my knowledge about this conversion goes.. any help would be great

scott, for the rhd conversion all you need to do is change out the firewall and swap out all the stuff from the clip onto the car itself. you dont have to cut the car in half and weld on the rhd clip.

i know someone who is a mechanic at acura and has installed and welded (radiator supports) many jdm fronts before (im not too sure about rhd clips). PM me if you want his number he gives good pricing.
