I need a new front and rear bumper, so Im lookin at body kits. Cant afford a Type R conversion or whatever, so strictly body kits with front and rear bumper replacements.

 

whats the usdm c west look like?

 

Umm I don't think there is one for USDM, is there?? I've never heard of it myself, but then again, I don't know. What does it look like if it exists??

 

C WEST

 

Kool that's a first for me. doesn't look as good as the Japanese one but looks alright.

 

it'd look good w/ the 98+ headlights

 

well guys, thanks for your opinions so far... i just put a fat bid on a C-WEST kit on ebay... so I might be getting it. BUT keep the opinions coming just in case i lose the auction... i like oem look too, but its too much money for an oem kit.

 

wings west

 

OEM or the wings west RS kits, they both make the car look really good with a nice drop.

Late,
Jon

 

OEM but if not get the WW kit.

 

well i own the auction on ebay... assuming the seller doesnt flake... C-WEST is as good as mine!

The fact that some of you didnt even know it had existed kinda fueled my desire to get it. Wish I could afford the JDM conversion tho... I would go all out JDM C-WEST style!

I want something different, ya know? Tho, the OEM looks great, I've done the street racer thing, weekend track racing thing, drifting thing(believe it or not), off roading thing(HAHA yes you heard me right! Dont do it, by the way... your car will never be the same again!), I've done everything but go for show. SO... thats my deal.

 

Anyone got pics of the full extrme kit on a 2 door integra? my friends girlfriend is looking at it and cant find many pictures of the full kit, the one on vis's site is a poor example of it

 

i dont think that is a real cwest bumper

 

no its not, CWEST dont make bumpers for USDM tegs. However, Im pretty sure CWEST uses fiberglass, so its not like a huge step back or anything to get a knockoff.

oh and for the extreme kit... go to http://www.visracing.com for a pic. JUST TO LOOK, however. Their kits suck ***! Go to http://www.importfan.com to buy... its called a different name but you should be able to recognize it.

 

Oem is by far the best if you want the clean look. Just look at the poll results.

 

Haha..us made cwest style bumper..

Real CWEST


Yes indeed it's made out of fiberglass, but it's high quality fiberglass. I got rearended doing atleast 40mph and only did a little cracked on it.

yeah, i got rear ended too... no damage to the bumper itself, but one day while taking out my spare tire, I notice that the trunk was ripped apart from that impact. I can take a hose to my trunk and it will all drip out... nice huh?

So you got a crack? How would you fix such a thing? with fiberglass bondo, right? WOW, thats hard to do... I assume it would work on a cheaper, yet still high quality fiberglass bumper.

BTW, I have seen like a dozen JDM CWEST tegs out there and about a million JDM conversions. I dont wanna be like everyone else, sorry! This is also why I dislike the oem look... how many integra's have the oem look? just about every damn integra on the road. I dont know about you, but making a show car that is stock on the exterior doesnt seem to work all too well...

 

I'm getting the WW RS kit.

 

that kit look very ugly with the USDM headlights.....

 

It might be dime a dozen thing to have JDM front-end over in cali..but here in the east coast..you don't see it everyday. And I don't quite understand what you're saying...

Jeff-

 

C-West

 

there u have it, California people think conversions are c00l

 

True....wow, I didn't know you were in NJ. Anywho, I haven't seen any JDM conversions in my life around here....and I've seen lots of crazy stuff.

I'd still kill for a JDM front end....but I don't have the money. Just spent it all on turbo.

 

yeah, keeping the front end that comes STOCK in this country as opposed to the one that came stock on the later integras in japan but never here is REAL original.....those damned JDM front ends, so played out....i cant go 5 minutes from my house without seeing like 10 of the things...oh wait, sorry...i was thinking of the USDM front end

 

get tghe wings west lip on a stock bumper
any ficerglass front for a dc2 is wack
get all chiopped up and break.....
and its a b*tch to make the bumper line up w/ the fenders
ohh and if ya hit a curb or a pothole say bye-bye to those non reinforced fenders and hello to a 300+ pricetag for new ones. per fender
btw i have the rs lip brand new for sale....
and a vis exterme rear bumper.....you can run it w/ any sides and it looks hard
thats my pick.. hit me up if anyones interested
