Default What to do with the EK ...:::POLL:::...

As you know, I got into an accident with my EK

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1323155

Now I got to make a decision. Stay with the 99-00 CTR conversion, or go back to the stock 96-98 look but go SIR. I think the 99-00 is played out because there's so many SI's around.

JDM 99-00 CTR headlights, grill, and lip.


JDM 96-98 SIR bumpers, CTR headlights


Password JDM front lip

It's a huge pet pieve of mine when people convert the front ends, if thats a 96-8 car then go back to the 96-8 front end. Conversions are SO played out, you're right. I like your wing allot on that car, the sir front end would be dope

Go all stock like it came out of the factory besides wheels. Put the rest of the money into motor and suspension. Sleeper style

96-98 own si front ends. I think the si front ends are played out and if its a 96-98, keep it that way
