Learn your **** before you talk bro.

and to the OP looks good man! do it and be different! good luck with finding everything!
Way to quote someone from 7 months ago, I'm sure he has forgotten this thread exist.


This conversion looks decent on the four doors as NOFX stated. On the coupe not so much, and on the hatch I think it doesn't look right at all. The hatch is too bubbly and curvaceous to stick the jagged edges of this front end on.

Read the post before yours.

It's NOT an Isuzu front end. It's a Honda front end. The Honda it came on was sold in some markets rebadged as an Isuzu. It's not an Isuzu anymore than a Japanese Toyota Cavalier is really a Toyota.

He's not a ricer, but you are a retard. I wouldn't say it but the information is right in front of you.

lol Not really a nerve, but geez, the information was right there and it's not rice. This "rice" term is really old. I use it to refer to show cars (not meant as an insult - kind of like gay people "reclaiming" certain words and black people doing the same) and also to refer to parts or work that is shoddy or gaudy.

A lot of rice can be pulled off well. By that I mean parts can be quality and be installed correctly. Doesn't mean I or anyone else has to like it, but that's beside the point.

Anyway though, just funny he saw what is actually an OE part for that chassis and got mad and called it rice.

I like the look of the car "except" the front end! I don't know why people think it's so great?
Personally i think it's boring/uninteresting. Here's a stock one..



Not my cup of tea!

If you read the post again you'll see that I wrote GAY people first and then mentioned black people.

I mentioned those two groups because they were the first large groups I could think of who are trying to take offensive slang terms (the three letter f-word and the six letter n-word) and try to reclaim them for use in their own groups as non-offensive words.

Btw, I'm gay, so I'm certainly not trying to pick on anyone.

Friend of mine did this front end conversion back in 99 or 00 to his wife's coupe. Nobody knew wtf it was. It was kinda funny to watch people speculate what front end it was.

That bumper complements the front end so well. The only thing that turns me away from the typical el conversion was that stock bumper, but I can't lie, this looks good!

Any pics of it painted?
