the conversion looks top-notch w/ a clean install. I'm not a real fan of the kit, though.

awesome job...its just the proportions always get kind of messed up when people do head/tail conversions. like the headlights are a little too big and low to look right at all angles.

but props for the hard work and clean install.

it looks good.. and why the hell would it need a motor? its not a race car.. that body work is top notch..

and why is it a waste of money? its just a civic.. if the man walks out to his car every day and hes still happy with the car.. its not a waste at all...

I think it looks tight, but I'd just get the lexus if that's what I wanted my civic to look like.
