Of course you can, but why would you want to just out of curiousity? Only thing it's good for in my garage is proping the door open...

Pics aren't that great because they were taken inside of my garage, so they're the best I could do. The last picture is old, and as you can tell, I don't have those shitty headlights anymore.

Why?
You could just as easily swap in a D16z6 for a lot cheaper.

How often do you take your car out? I haven't noticed you around town.

Everyday it isn't raining or snowing. I try to drive it as much as possible since you never know what the freaking weather is actually going to be like here!

No kidding. The seven day forecast is ALL rain, not one day of sunshine!

Just so I'm not completely hijacking the post; don't bother with the D17, it would be cheaper and better to do a K24 from an Accord or Element.
