Default Who makes widebody kits for a DC?

I'm interested to know who makes widebody kits for DC coupes. Reason being, I am supposed to go check out a 96 LS with S14 front and widebody kit sometime here soon and I didn't want to waste my time if it was some custom fab, ghetto b/s.

Is this a good deal? The car is a 1996 LS, 5 speed. 100k miles on body, newly replaced b18b1 with crower cams and head internals and bottom end mods (unsure of right now), s14 front end conversion and widebody kit. Needs paint, 4k dollars.

I know you all dislike the s14 front, but I'd like to try something other than the JDM conversion. The car looked very nice with the front, I haven't seen it since the widebody.

I agree... kinda whack conversion... but anyways, for 4k, its a really good deal, as long as u dont have to fix/replace much. I would get is, de-rice it, and go boost... especially if it has a worked bottom end.

there's a guy on ebay who sells fiberglass widebody kits for 94-01 integras. he also sells replica optional sideskirts and rear valences. i'm not sure of his username on ebay, but he has an ebay store so it shouldn't be too hard to find him.

i actually like the s14 front end, but with all those mods and a wide body kit on an integra.. seems kinda ricey and things are going to go wrong with it... for 4,000 it's def. not some perfect show winner etheir.. i'd stay away from it

How so?

I just want to try something different really, the JDM front conv. has become such a big fad that I have actually gotten tired of seeing it on every single Integra that has a decent visual mod list.

I'm not sure how a widebody kit is rice, considering 90 percent of the people would be all on the nuts of let's say...a widebody supra or something expensive. Granted, I haven't seen it since the widebody so I will be the judge of that when I see it.

Thanks for the opinions though.

S14 front end is badass...... on a 240 or S14.

Wide body kits on an integra = rice

S14 front on an integra = rice

Theres probly a reason the dude is selling that car, and it aint cause it looks good.

Keep it simple but sweet and you'll be happy with it in two, three years

how so is because it's ugly. just like almost every other aftermarket, non-replacement body part.
every integra you see in tennessee has a jdm front?

but, in the end, it's your car. make it as ugly as you want.

i'm just sayin that ***** going to be wrong with it since he's selling so cheap.. and people go crazy over a supra w/a wide body kit cuz its a supra.. i can actually back up the bad *** kit with performance. integras are everywhere.. just my thought though.. i had a huge kit on my 300zx twin turbo, but it got respect cuz it was actually fast.. if you get a wide body teg everyone & their mom is going to try to race you at every light
