No it will not. I tried it. I was able to mold most of the headlight but when it came to the sidemarker part of the headlight there was nothing I could do. The headlight itself if longer and a completely different shape by the sidemarer.

With enough money you can have a customised headlight made just for you.

the lights will not fit in any way. I have measured and tried to think of work arounds. Custom projectors is the way to go, and the cheap projo's are cheap, and crappy, and will NOT look right. The guy that did it on here had to modify his bumper, hood, AND fenders, and it looked like it didn't belong. Do projector conversion or HID, Do it right, and it'll look 100 times better.

he did it cause he has a front end damage and also he got a filler deal on some headlights with projectors already retroed from a accord

so he jumped the gun and was the first to do it, its subtle but a little akward and looks like they were not designed for the cars lines and curvature

Kick ass motor!! But one problem... I'm thinking that without a lot, A LOT of frame and body modification.. yeah, you know where I'm going with this. Not to mention you better reinforce that bad boy or it's twisting into a pretzel. Let me just say, the 6L TT is one torquey motor. Just a pain in the ass when you have to change 24 spark plugs!!

If i remember right...He got a TON of crap for doing that conversion. (Tons of members hated it and gave him shit....)

Its too bad, I myself liked it, (never enough to do it myself) but he was just being different and not many members liked it.
