Excellent work man

Sorry about nitpicking, but there seem to be large gaps where the left and right fenders meet the headlamps. Is it supposed to be like that?

Also, post some more pics of your car, at other angles if you don't mind. What kind of rims are those? I noticed Acura centercaps, but I didn't recognize them.

Lets see, to answer everyone's questions....

No my car isnt a type r, its a silver GS.

The picture you see, the only thing thats actually bolted is the hood and headlights, the fenders and bumper arent even bolted down thats why there are a lot of gaps.

My wheels do have Acura Center caps, how did you guys see them out of those pictures? hehe they are alt racing wheels, yes they are chrome, but i love them, must for a florida thing

This pic is before I put the acura center caps in



I paid $2800 for my kit, (its the oem metal with oem hid's, also included the whole radiator support even though i just used the top 't', also shipping was 220, so basically I paid 2600).

I bought it from IC Roger, I highly recommend him, he was extremely helpful, answered every question i had, had a billion pics of the kit, gave me a tracking number, and packaged it very well. It took me 5 minutes of straight cutting bubble wrap to get the headlights un-done.

great job man! ur lucky to have an apartment complex that let's u work on ur car . i can't do squat with my car when i used to live in apartments. oh well. make sure that the welds are nice and secure. otherwise, the whole radiator frame might give way when u jack ur car up by using the front frame jack mount.

Good job. It is good to see people not being afraid to do some custom work on their own cars.

Why not? I think it will be ok. Like I said, you can paint the c/f if you want. How much are OEM hoods? I believe VIS c/f hoods run $300 or $350...plus $100 for paint.
