Default JDM ITR headlight conversion done photoshoot time ;)

So I fiinally finished and painted the car. I still need to get the mugen replica side skirts but they had been on backorder from VIS. Next up is the LS/Vtec gettin put in. Everything is ready for it just need the time to do the swap now so it will be bye bye to the old torqueless wonder of a b16. After that I'm goin back to suspension and then on to my interior. Wish me luck.

Thanks,
Jon

PS: Yes all body work and paint was done by myself

Not bad. But the bonnet still needs more work. Doesn't line up properly and doesn't sit flush on the headlights near each corner.

should've done some more bodywork before you finished and that spoiler is mounted like 30 inches way too forward man.

hood/headlight area need some attention, but nice job. just dump the biatch and fit a few areas and it'll be different.

and the m00gen style spoiler IS postioned correctly...it's supposed to sit against the edge of the rear window. you shoulda painted the spoiler though.

Doesn't flow, but to each his own. The rest of your car looks sick. You live in phx? I don't think I've ever seen your whip.

edit: I just saw your location so nm, did you take the pics at tempe acura?

They look a little out of place, IMHO, but not near as bad as most headlight conversions I have seen. Looks like some pretty decent body work.

I also think 17"s look a little too big on DA's.

all it needs IMO is diff wheels, a mad drop, lose the spoiler, lose the tint, lose the rear wiper, lose the rear decals and she is sweet, but whatever you like man it's your ride, I think it's still pretty nice, different that's for sure.


oh yeah some spoon or spoon style mirrors too.

Needs more work. And quite possibly the biggest waste of a pair of ITR headlights. Why the hell would you do this pointless mod?
