Default DEL SOL FRONT END CONVERSION

I cant figure out in my head what I like more. Sorry to offend the del sol lovers in here but I dont like the bug eye look of this car. Im gonna change it, but then I kinda like that jdm look with the one piece lights. My car is black. Anybody got any ideas on a HONDA conversion?

sell the del slow and buy a car that comes factory with the front end you want.

Pros: chances are it'll come with the rear end that matches. and you won't have a del gay

Cons: most likely your next car will still be slow

The rest of the hondas in my price bracket dont have a top that comes off. I could have figured that out on my own. Nice comment alot less del sols so i thought i would try something different. doesnt matter how fast it is to me its still feels fast in an autoX.

I'd say go with the JDM front end, but beware that the front bumper is somewhat hard to find. I would just get a USDM front bumper, JDM one piece lights and the JDM lower fogs and mod them into the USDM bumper

Thats a good idea, isnt the only thing different is the reflectors on the sides. i would need a 97 front bumper right? to get rid of the fogs.

Well even the JDM sols had the aux lights, but they also had fog lights at the bottom of the bumper beside the grill. Look for RARE_EG2's sol and you'll see what I mean. you could shave the reflectors and it would look pretty close to the JDM sol. Just be sure to get the 92-95 ex/si lip for it

the lower fog lights were an optional extra on the jdm models, not all of them have them
