Default DC2 Lights on a 4th gen Prelude

Is it possible to put a DC2 headlight onto a 4th generation Prelude? I think that if you took off the vents you would be able to but I'm not sure, does anybody know?

Body work definitely. Very interesting though. I think I'm gonna bust out photoshop and see what it would look like.

I think it would look cool to have Silvia headlights on a 4th gen lude.

I think someone should photoshop a 4th gen with SILVIA head lights and DC2 head lights.

I think the 4th gen headlights are a strong point and don't need to be screwed with. The taillights, though... Skyline

I don't like the skyline taillights - maybe because i've never seen anyone do it correctly. If done correctly - it would be nice. Matter of fact - i'm getting ready to search some pictures. Peace out.

Yeah, if you want to do a conversion...that's the one.

I would have included the bezel that goes in the middle between the tail lights that says "skyline" if I did mine. maybe it wouldn't fit, but i think it woudl look good if it did

how about not put SKYLINE on there and use the 5th gen PRELUDE that is on the bumper...Putting SKYLINE would be rather retarded IMO.
