so I've had my 96 2.5 in the family for 12 yrs now. I've finally gotten to the point to show it some love.

got parts in and couldn't help but share instead of waiting for proper paint etc
so you get some iphone pics lol





I got from another member the Inspire grey metal headlights with eyelids, mugen grille, lip, rear inspire 3rd brake lamp, gab strut bar, honda badge, and inspire s badges.

Those parts look damn familiar. Are you riding on 5 lug fronts and 4 lug rears?

memphisraines26

Yeh parts were sold on here.

Yeh mismatched lugs til I get the right offset for rear and good weather to test fit some steelies for winter Sunday

It was have lol my cell was acting up again lol.... Wat color u guna paint ur car or ur gunna leavr it the same color.... The grill lip and head lights make a big diff on the 2.5 lol... I love it lol

I wanted to change the color but I think I will just leave it as is. Plus will be cheaper to clean up the body and keep the same color vs a full color change.

I love the look it's getting now!!

What did you do to convert the front to a 5 lug? I was interested in doing that for a while now but heard it would be a headache. If it was simple I may do it if not, I think I may just repaint my car and sell it.

why did you put the "Inspire" on your 2.5?? 2.5's are Sabers. still cool though.

Sorry I didn't see this reply.

I wanted better wheel options than the 4x114. I can find 5x114 way easier and ultimately want some 17" wheels.

Depends on the market. Some 2.5 were sold as Inspire and Inspire S with the optional lip. There was the G20 and G25 options. Plus it was a package deal.

All USDMs are rebadged Sabers but there were many, many UA2 Inspires. The 25G, 25XG, and 25S trims were offered for both Saber and Inspire models.
