Whats the problem? It's essentially a Civic SI front end with a carbon fiber hood? So what its on an EG, from the front it doesnt look any different.


And keep it black or gunmetal.

The civic Si front end looks a million times better than the EG front end anyway. I dont care for your lights, but the car doesnt look bad. My suggestion, is the paint looks nice, I like it, just paint the hood black to match.

Paint it gunmetal, championship white, or leave it black. Don't go for any flashy colors that may attract extra attention from Johnny Law.

i like 99.9 % of it. i really like black my next car will be black so my opinion just respay it factory black. as with the mirrors its your own opinion (which you're entitled to since you drive it but i would ditch them)
