What can you swap on a 01 Civic Ex to a 04 Civic ES
i posted before but this is a rough idea what i can swap off my 01 Civic to the 04 Civic im getting. I need to replace a rear bumper cover, passenger side door and front fender on the passengers side. Anything else the engine is the same a D17A1. Will brakes, suspension, pretty much everything be interchangeable. What can i guy do to mod this ****er up a bit without breaking the bank???

fender wont work because the front end is different otherwise everything else you mentioned will swap over, keep engine and trans as spares if they're both 5 speeds or both autos

front struts are bigger diameter on the newer cars. don't do them, or knuckles will not fit (different bolt sizes)
if you keep the engine, the EX engine will need the ECU (VTEC) and wiring to ECU. If you use the EX ECU, to avoid having to program the keys, you will need to transplant everything key related from one car to the other.
newer cars have wideband O2 sensors, so the EX ECU will not work well with the wideband ones, i presume
front end parts, obviously will not fit unless you transplant everything
the major ones are those?
