Is this really a CL?

so i was looking for some pictures of modded 97 CLs. and i came across this picture. it says its a 96 cl and i was wondering if you guys think it really is. i know the fenders and for the cl because i was looking into them for myself. and the side skirts look like theyre form the spyder 2 body kit. i cant tell if the front bumper is too. what do you guys think?

That is an accord, that is not a CL. No way that's a whole conversion on a CL, the mirrors, headlights, bumper, grille, and hood are all for an accord, it's an accord

oh okay. that makes sense. and it seems like 99.9% of people on here hate the body kits for the CL.

there is a crazy looking custon CL on youtube. its a orange color and has a wide body kit on it and everything. I just never understood why someone would spend so much money modifying the car then stick pyle audio system in there like they did though. here is the video I was talking about http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_JQw9OeaVyM

Yeah, we know that car well on here, it gets posted all the time. Dude put all that money into it and then tried to sell it, last I knew it was for sale again. Lots of work, but yes also over the top. There's a few out there like this, there's also a green one and yellow one that are just as over the top

That audio stuff is all Polk's Momo line. It's actually really nice stuff. I had 2 sets of components out of that line (MMC5250's and MMC6500's) and liked them and had good results from them.
