Default jdm coupe front

does the jdm coupe front end exist? not sure if they make a coupe out there... and if so will those headlights and bumper fit as a direct bolt on?

Someone on 8thcivic has a JDM front end on his USDM coupe. I'm guessing he somehow made a sedan front fit a coupe. Anyway, it looks sick. I rarely use 8th and I can't find him now.

I think I know what you're talking about. I'm pretty sure it was just a photoshop to see what it would look like.

Yeah, probably a chop because no one on the 8th has a coupe with a Type R front end. I saw the chop and I thought it looked ***-ugly. Just like all those coupe owners who keep throwing the mugen wing on their car.

No I know the chop you speak of...the Champ White Type R mixed with a Taffy Si Coupe. You're right...it didn't look that good. The one I saw was a legimate swap. It was either a NHBP or FBP Coupe. I wish I could find it.

Lol...I've been looking for the guy on 8th for the last half an hour. I wish I used 8th more so I could remember where I saw him, or what his name was.

It's definitely not a chop lol. I saw a FBP chop while I was looking through threads on the 8th, and it didn't look that good. I am almost positive it was an '06 NHBP. The guy had pictures of the thing outside. It wasn't just like a chop on a white background.

That's a damn good chop. That's not it though. I am pretty sure it is NHBP.

This chop makes me think that the one I originally looked at could be a chop lol.

It's possible either way...with a lot of bodywork and money. LOL.
