Talking Honda Saber Roll Call

just curious to see how many other saber conversions we have here, too many people with inspire conversion so i wanted to be different. maybe post a lil pic and list what you have on your car to show your a JDM whore.

me: rear gold/black honda emblem // front chrome/black honda emblem // S A B E R badging // Honda of America C-Pillar badges // soon to get modulo emblems and window visor vents.

isnt the reason people have mainly done the inspire conversion to their rides is because the saber is the 2.5 version of the TL... and the inspire is the 3.2 that we have here in america so it makes more sense?? correct me if im wrong?.... props on being original though.

I wouldnt call it a conversion with just the badges, now MAYBE if you switched the front bumper and fogs as well then i might call it a conversion

I'm here!!! ^^^ I Like my original bumper. Don't feel like spending a grand for a front bumper for just fogs. My airbag is on the way. Just need my shiftknob now.

I want one, just having a hard time locating it, so far I just have the rear emblem, and the saber grill is on its way from japan. Looking for an airbag, and possibly HOA shift knob, not too fond of the pillar emblems.

I always love a chance to whore it up, I think I am one of two 02-03's to have the genuine Saber grill, the other car being Hornda's.

To be honest, i don't like the Saber grill. I think it attracts people (from U.S.) into buying them simply because they are rare in the U.S. I think they look ugly and it just takes away from the "classy" look of the car. The front end of the car is possibly the most dominant part of a vehicle. Its like the center of attention when you pull up to a car show. It is mainly what makes the car so different from others (for the most part) and i think the Saber grill just kills the entire "classy" look of the TL. Hate it or Love it, thats my
