The price is about $400 -$600 difference from the last time I calculated.
But JDM looks better hands down. The Euro-R is the one you're talking about rite?

I personally like the euro r better but I dont always like to say it cause I dont want to have like half the people that put body kits on it do the euro r kit cause I want something unique. maybe look in to the Kenystyle kit too it is pretty sweet kit. very oem looking.

I find that my taste changes with the color of the car... For darker colors, I still think the OEM kit looks best because it's got more aggressive, forceful lines. On the lighter colored cars, I like the Euro R kit because it's sportier. However, I really don't think you can go wrong with either choice... I've never seen a TSX with a body kit I didn't like

Mine is in white, so ya, but it looks nicer with a Honda Grill since it's looks unify.

My bud could get me the kit for 2200CAD with lights, which is pretty much the same if I get the OEM with lights

Wow... you would be getting ripped a new one on that OEM kit

EDIT: I just did the conversion and it's worse then I thought. That's the worst price I have ever heard of... it's cheaper then that from the stealership!
