Looks weird. The proportion is off. If they were more proportional, it would work better.

The owner is a nice guy, but I would not hack up my car like that......his car was already kitted out so no big deal.....i dont think hes worry about resale. To each his own....its definitely different.

The first pic IS sick...
But - The new look is f$%cken AWESOME!
Blows my mind that you'd hack a supercar and put crap celica lights on it. And the resale will be affected...but kudos for the daring undertaking!!!

I too am surprised so many dislike it - but that just goes to show the dedication to the Honda name!

HOTNESS though! I'd drive it for sure

cool and unusual, but to spend 80,000 bucks on this custom body work to make it look like a Lamb-gini why wouldnt you just go buy one,,

Should have left it alone. I miss cars with pop up headlights.

nice custom work. not really my flavor. but im wondering if he was trying to duplicate the Veilside Fortune kit? The car looked aggressive already with the original front end. I think its because the headlights are too far forward like everyone is saying. I think the headlight is just a tad bit too large for the front end. It needs to be more mellow. The NSX is already eye catching. But non the less great body work. not really my cup of tea but it is his car! much props for doing something different.

Well done! It really is different but after getting use to the new lights it totally rocks...then again I have never been a fan of the late model headlights. The celica headlights make it look more aggressive. Although I prefer the flip ups these would be next on my list.

I agree...it takes a lot of b@##s to that mod!

I know there are a LOT of haters, but I actually find this NSX pretty hot. I really like the flip up lights, but this is pretty sexy. I don't think all NSX's should be the same anyway. This car is definitely different, and it looks good. Just like ediddy said, "to each his own."

Reminds me of a Lamborghini....
But it's way too big for the car!

If the headlights were thinner, I think the front would look like the HSV-010 GT.
