get a 00 si grill
si grilles fit on the 99-00 front end, not the 96-98 grill



gotta say, your cars lookin real good. id just get the front end and trim repainted instead of the whole car. carbon fiber hoods look insanely good on black hondas. good job so far! :thumbs up

I posted some really crappy pics of my engine bay, they are the before pics, then as I upgrade I will add more pics to update, it's cool though, I can understand, I had to get most of the grease off before the first pic I took.

Nice man we are in the same boat. Just picked up a 96 Red DX myself. I found some red 99-00 front end pieces for cheap so I will be installing that this summer.
