I'm guessing he probably just broke it for kicks because it was being replaced anyway. He bought my old H&R springs back even before his "before" pics he posted, and the broken windshield looks like is from during the current work that's being performed on the car.

nah, the before pics was when i had the old front suspension of the my old civic with the itr swap. It was tokico whites with a prokit. Shortly after that I bought yours.

Yea the window was broken out because I was an idiot and forgot to tape it off b4 I welded the dash bars in and got slag on the windshield. Then I couldn't paint the cage with the window in. So I just busted it out. The next day I had a window man come out and remove the rest of it the proper way. It was stupid, but I am way past that now.

I will actually hopefully have some pictures worth looking at here in a couple weeks. Keeping it teal though.

yup, its in the works. lol, it will look similar but very different in quite a few ways. You will see soon enough. I actually came across a really good deal on some bi-xenon hid's that I am going to retrofit in. Just happened to be a coincidence

My front end needs repainting, I think I'm going to get a brand new front bumper from Acura whenever I get around to getting it done, though. The one I have is just too crappy *cough* Davis *cough*

Less than $300 shipped to my door from Len at Baranco Acura

It's going to be awhile before I could do it, probably not until after my tax refund next spring at the earliest.

850 is kinda expensive, I've seen the brakes go for around 250, the wheels around 350 w/tires. But if you already have an integra getting this modification will do nothing performance wise, you will just have 4x114.3 instead of 4x100, so I would suggest saving your money and use it on something better.

My bumper had all the grille stuff cut out, it's torn along the bottom edge in one spot (ITR lip covers it), and it's had at least 3 separate coats of primer and paint sprayed on it in the past, and at one point it wasn't prepped correctly, so the paint in the INTEGRA letters looks all bubbled and really really crappy. I just don't want to take any chances on that again and would rather buy a brand new bumper that has never been painted yet.

yeah, mine is kind of the same way. Mine is only the second time its been painted, but its fairly beat up. Lots of little scrapes and scratches in the actual bumper material and the bottom, under the lip, is quite torn up. It would definitely be nice to get a new bumper.

i hear ya, kinda hard to find a used one that hasen't been raped by a bodyshop.

as for the conversion, my rear calipers were seized and my rear rotors were toast. also the fronts were probably on their way out soon. i paid $850 including rims for the 4x114.3, sold the polished fat 5's for $450, sold the rear trailing arms and front hubs, parking break cables etc for $350, so i paid $50 out of my pocket for all new calipers, ball joints, rotors, some kind of JDM racing pads on the front (i have no clue what they are...but the pad is red? ) and new rims which are pretty damn light. i kept my tires as they are only a couple of months old. also, i have the ABS sensors that are almost brand new selling for $80. so this way i actually saved money so that was a big factor in this whole swap. i picked it up from a local shop that imports JDM parts called Teknotik - good guys there! btw: that's CDN $$
