JDM Front End Conversion?

Well as you know JDM conversions are so awesome on the Integra, I was looking into it, and i was wondering what you guys thought, is it worth the 2,500-3,000? and the hard installation... Or just keep the old integra look, and beef up the internals more? looking for opinions

some people prefer looks before speed. me personally, despite how much i love the jdm front, i'd prolly keep the USDM front and ad an oem lip to it.

I think it's too much to spend on cosmetics like that. It will be way over 2,500, even if you get a great deal on the parts, then you have the install and paining it on top of that. Look to spend about 5g's easily.

if you wanted a jdm integra you should have saved your money and just had one imported from japan... R.H.D type-r it doesnt get any better than that, a friend of mine had one shipped here from japan and when it was all said and done with he had a 98 type-r for just a little over 13K you cant beat that! im not flaming im just giving you my opinion....

in its way here (to ohio) it stopped in california and the motor was rebuilt to meet usdm requirements. thats all i know of as of now i will be sure to ask him what else he had to do i think thats it though! yeah it is dope as hell and very weird you should see the amount of people that look "females in general" when they see that you the driving on the wrong side of the car .... he calls it the "panty dropper"
