decided to part it instead of fixing.
didnt u say the frame was smashed in?
if all that shit got fucked up i would think that it would need a rad. support as well
was it salvage title? if so, you need airbags to pass the inspection
ATF is the fluid you need for the tranny at any honda dealer and i bet your going to need a new radiator support.
So your not gonna sell it now? You might have trouble selling that thing after your done with it.
If i fix it Ill keep it. (yes I know its hard to sell a rebuilt titled car.) but for now its still for sale.
My Jetta that I fixed has a clean title. Ill probibly sell that if I can fix this car cheap enough.
If I fix the fram rail Im just going to Hammer the Rad saport back to close. Im not overaly worried If Im going to keep it. the bumper cover will hid the looks.
i work at a wrecking yard i might be able to see if they have any parts for this what color white you said right?
Im not overly conserand with the color. I paint cars so it dont matter. Just looking for cheap 
I wouldnt mind pulling the hole front clip from one car if you have it.
We have a couple of 96-00 civic whole front clips. Ill give you a price/ see what we have.
Did you find any prices?
