I think the only thing anyone could really tell you, unless they've done this themselves, is fitment. Of course you already knew that.
With that being said its going to be a whole lot of custom work, cutting, welding, fabricating... Etc etc. Measurements will be key. Don't be surprised if you don't get it the first try, or even the second try.
As for the lighting, you may end up having to swap sockets on your harness to get rue lights swapped.
Good luck.Last edited by dysfunk; 06-19-2012, 04:28 PM.92 Honda Accord LX - Sold

There isn’t a diy, because it hasn’t really been attempted. It wouldn’t be a simple bolt-on anyway without a ton fabrications, it’s not like an S-chassis, in which front end swaps can be done over the weekend with hand tools.Comment

Not doubting your skills, have you ever done any extreme moddin like this b4?
See if some 1 can do a photoshop of it first.. I kno the prelude front fenders r bugger than a cb. So you'll have big fenders in the front. Small fenders in the back. Like a lil funny. Unless u can roll the back fenders to kinda match the prelude width.
