Default head light question about 3rd gen. lude

Hey, i was wonderin what you guys think, i wanna do somethin' a little differant to my 3rd gen, i wanna do a lip up conversion to get rid of em or do a 5th gen swap. What do you guys think? What would be easier, and have you ever seen it done before (did it look good?)

they are not gonna fit without some heavy modifying, i can tell you that right now.
you fill have to modify your fenders, your hood, and probably your bumper as well. also, you would have to make custom brackets to hold them, and then paint the whole front. too much work and money, and i don't think it would be worth it.
and besides, i think it would look like ****. if you really hate your lights, try to find a JDM prelude INX front that doesn't have flip-up headlights. my $.02
