Default Project JDM - Finally got my JDM Conversion done!!!

Hey guys, just wanted to show you all my new JDM Conversion. Just finished it yesterday. Took me about a week. I am not done with my project because my engine is still sitting at a machine shop but I figured I'd do the body work for now. The interior will be done shortly. Will put a new post up in a few weeks in Cosmetic/Appearance to show you the whole project. Thanx for looking! Look out for my project on Cosmetic/Appearance in a few weeks. I will be sure to post a link here and show you all the details with pics. For those who want to learn how to do a JDM conversion, you'll love it because it'll give you all the details. Step by step...

Also, this isn't a finished picture so you'll see some gaps. Thats because I wanted to see how it fits before I started bolting things down. But it looks pretty good so far....
Here is a picture of the conversion.

Well, it's the buddyclub2. I liked it for some reason.. (BUT W/OUT THE SPOILER)
Well maybe because of these pictures



But it'll be House of Kolor - Kandy Apple Red w/ Fireball Flakes.
I'll be painting it myself and also I'll show you exactly how I did my conversion.
BTW, I did it w/out welding the Rad Support and I know a lot of people want to know how that's done so I'll post all that info in cosmetics/appearance once the whole thing is done..along with another thread of how I am paiting my car.

Dont listen to them, the Buddy Club 2 bumper is good looking bumper (even though it isnt actually made by Buddy Club, but I digress). It all comes down to overall presentation.

If you take off the lame accessories, the car actually looks pretty good. check it out...



Everyone is on a JDM kick and think that body kits are lame. Whatever, no one says anything when a 240 has a kit or a STI has a kit or a 350Z has a kit, but put one on a Honda and it's immediately ricey.

Just do your own thing, keep it clean and not gaudy. Everyone will soon follow, you'll see...

Looks good. Glad you did something other than stock front with a lip or Cwest bumper.

I've never seen this one before. It's different... and actually kinda nice. not too flashy at all. Up there with the cwest IMO.

It's almost identical to C-West. I have a feeling that it was copied from C-West and modified a bit.

Buddy Club 2
