wouldn't look right at all. There was a guy on here with an accord conversion, and he had to cut his fenders, hood and bumper i believe, not worth it at all

send that money my way, im sure my CL will appreciate it

and keep the wood, it finishes the interior...but if you must change it then just paint it another colour or wrap it in vinyl

If you have extra money wouldn't it be more usefully spent upgrading the H22

the JRSC is junk, H22's love turbo's. Your friends are idiots and don't know how to setup and tune a motor.



"But yea, Vtec Turbo's don't work" Probably one of the dumbest things ever said on this board.

I think that Nissan S15 Silvia lights would fit well. They are sord of same shape. I thought about it today when I was driving and saw a teggy with them.

I think the new TL or TSX headlights to the front end would be a nice conversion

anyone willing to do a photoshop? klepto? anyone?


plus thay are HID too and TSX have the best cutoff besides the Valeo ECE with a clear lense

The s15 looks good, the accord conversion looked like he had to cut his fenders, bumper, and hood, and it didn't look smooth or fit the lines of the car at all.
