Default Your opinions please.

This is a front end conversion for an EG to have a JDM typeR front end. I like kits and was pondering this one. This is a possibility along with the S14 front end. I refuse to jump on the JDM bandwaggon and get a Spoon styled lip or whatever. I'm going for what I like. So if you seen this in a parking lot , your reaction would be? (let the flaming begin)

Personally I just don't like DC front ends on civics. To me it just looks out of place, it looks too long compared to the car, whether it is or not.

On a hatch I would say that is not cool, but I have seen that on like 96-00 civic coupes and it looks good.

I'd probably think, "I hope he has a serious motor."

But I'll also be the first to say that I think the JDM DC2 front end looks better on a Civic than on an Integra. I love the four-eyes USDM front end. The JDM front on an EG looks pretty nice, in my opinion.

If you honestly don't care, then do it. Just make sure whoever puts this kit on is a perfectionist or it will look like crap! I wouldn't do it.

I would say...if you like the look, then do it. You are the one having to look at it everyday.

Default Re: (white hatch)

as a general rule of thumb....

DON'T PUT PARTS ON YOUR CAR THAT DON'T BELONG!!!!!

Putting body parts on a car that weren't supposed to go there is retarded, and easily falls in the category of RICE. It also happens to fall into the category of STUPID and TASTELESS.

Do yourself a favor and keep the entire automotive community from pointing and laughing at you by not putting an integra front end on your civic....

Where the hell is Genesio NY? And I think I'll end up doing it. Mostly cuz I like it. And I give a **** less about the rice factor. So the people who go JDM are rice in my book. And I asked for opinions because I like seeing everybody get all up in arms on here.
