I agree, I personally would rather dump 3 grand into a turbo then having a JDM front end which is hardly unique anymore.

Negative, unless by headlights you mean the bulbs. Bulbs are the same size. Housings are not interchangable.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Actually the only difference between the headlights is the clear cover on the front. The rear housing and insides are exactly the same for all Integras. They are interchangeable, BUT where would you find only the clear covers? Probably not anywhere.

My passenger side headlight actually has the projector and inside pieces from a 98+ headlight that was broken on the outside. I broke the projector shield inside mine, so the I just swapped in the 98+ projector housing, which I got for free from a bodyshop. They had pulled it off of an Integra that had been in a slight fenderbender and was also getting the JDM front.

Actually, after I had my accident (I rear ended some1) both of the housings of my headlights were cracked but the front clear parts were both perfect. It is possible but still gonna be hard as hell to find.

okay well if your front clear pieces are perfect, you might be able to find 94-97 lights for cheaper, heat them up and remove the clear covers, and then swap yours on there.
