Default SiR Conversion

Ok well i have been saving for a new car but my daily driver isnt selling so im going to fix up my crx. so far i have planned to get a USDM B16 in it. 4 Point roll bar. and paint. right now its gutted with a cobra monaco racing seat ith a peak racing 5 point harness. anywho to the point. should i really go for the SiR conversion? i mean yeah yeah its JDM blah blah but i think if i focused on making the car look super clean it would be worth it not to get the Sir and have just a clean crx as oppose to a pretty good Sir Crx. let me know ur input. thank you
-Kyle

It ain't worth it in my opinion to just have wrap around turn signals and "sharper" headlights. You can get the SiR hood from passwordjdm in CF for a US model CRX. And sidemarkers are easy to do. In my opinion stick with US. By the way, why the hell would you put the USDM B16A2 in your car? What are you emission standards?

im in cali. i need a USDM to pass smog. smog sux. i plan on doing it right and getting it bar'd. i dont want any problems with cops, smog, tickets. so im just doing everything legit. but i totally agree with the side markers and stuff. i would probably get the mugen front bumper. (or maybe the knock off =P) but yeah i cant even tel to much of a difference in the JDM front
