Default conversion opinion!

ok guys, here the situation. i bought my 92 civic hb si in dallas,tx but it has a 98 front end conversion. the car has blue-ion black housing headlights, with a blitz from bumper and buddy1 sides,rear. i was thinking of converting the car front end back to 92 that way i can go for a clean look and when i enter shows i wont be competing against wild-category rides. ive been asking my boyz and the opinions vary from yes to no. now i want to know your opinion!
help me out on this guys, i can post a pic if u want to see it.

go back to stock, better looking IMO

plus your current front end is too big for that body

since it has already been converted, id say keep the 98 front end and lose the kit. add a lip and factory bumper and just keep it simple.

i think you should keep the conversion.. cuz i like the confused/surprised looks on people's faces when you pass by and they think its an EK lol ... but yea like triple said.. lose the kit put a stock bumper on there with a lip...

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Except for that kit anyway.

It'd be a waste of money, I say keep it as is. A waste- as in, something definitely won't be the same if the front has been converted that many times. If you want the older front, get another car with the older front- you might be able to get more money selling the current one... unless it has a swap that you want to keep

i was thinking of putting the 98 stock bumper, with a carbon lip and putting the 2000 si foglights, the carbon lip will make it look low fron the front and i can keep the sides and rear buddy one. i got a pic already but i dont know how to post pics.
