matts done his research, and decided to go with welding the clip to the car.Edit: forgot to mention, he will be paying a body shop to do this.
whos doing the work -
Honestly the only problem I forsee is that the welds would be too tough, and would allow enough flew and preak something in a different part of the vehicle while cornering hard....

"I've thought for hours and so no reason why someone would want to do this other than to be a biter and a fad follower, but.....
Just clip the car, buy a JDM front clip with windshield pillars and front floor. Have a GOOD body shop clip the car just like they would a totaled CRX. Probably 20% of the people on this board are driving CRXs that have had front clips welded on and they don't know it. Its a common practice in the body world. What they will do is cut the floor somwhere probably around where your feat go (I'd guess there is a seam somwhere in there but really can't remember) and cut the A-pillar. They'll put a sleeve in the A pillar, slide the new clip on to that sleeve to make a stronger a pillar, and weld the new floor on. It will be as stong as new if not stronger. Unfortunately you'll be stuck with a car that looks like it should belong to a mail man or a stunna." -
clipping a car is NOT a common practice in the body world!!!! It is NOT as strong if not stronger!!! You should find out who is going to do this, I am not the only one who is a bit curious.

A bit off topic, but pimp my ride didn't like the clipped idea on an escort.... I just hope that we won't see groshong driving a Scion with a huge wing after all is said and done.
Best of luck on the swap, and mad props on trying something different... I hope it all works out safely and fully functional!!Jason

That had something to do with only 9 little welds and a bunch of liquid nails holding the car together though...... I think he'll do better than that.

Speaking of that, there are now exact replicas (except smaller of course) of that scion sitting at wal-mart in the car toys isle. MTV has started making "Pimp My Ride" RC cars.
Ok, back on topic.
