it depends on what you like better dude, you're going to get answers from 20 different places as people have differents tastes in what they like. do what suits your taste more, do what suits your wallet more. if you have the extra money to get the JDM conversion, and like the JDM conversion more then the USDM front end then get it, obviously...

don't go JDM unless you get into a front accident of some kind or you just want to spend money because you're rich

yes, it looks nice but that $2150 could go nicely into a performance modification

also, you're just paying that for an asthetic mod, although it looks better, i wouldn't unless you can find a good deal


but to each his own

it's your money. would you spend the money because people on this forum say the jdm front-end is worth it? probably not. you need to decide for yourself. jdm front-ends are nice, but not worth the money out of pocket. after an accident, sure why not because one might as well.
