RSX Front end conversion

How come no one has done one of these yet? I personally think an rsx front end would look really unique on an em2. I've seen it done to older civics, and thats ok and all, but i think the body lines of an aftermarket rsx bumper would flow better on an 01-03 or an 04-05 model. Just an idea.

Re: RSX Front end conversion

i have no clue, but let it be known everyone on club rsx will mock you, sorry for being so blunt, but i even asked them on club rsx... and they were like yea.. that would scream rice and gheyness..

but hey, if u wanna dive it a try, i think the 01-03 would work better, just cause the old gold civic 01 concept before looked like a RSX pretty much

Re: RSX Front end conversion

yea idk about that lip kit. its different, ok i guess. I didn't really think about rsx owners talkin crap... thanks for your input. People have very different tastes in what they consider "RICE" i just know it when i see it. Automotive styling is extremely fickel one day people like something and the next day they hate it. Im having that delema right now with what to do with my car. Lip kits seem too mundane and alot of bodykits are ugly or everyone and their mother has that one.

Re: RSX Front end conversion

Ehh, it's okay. I personally wouldn't do it, but it seems like you're going for something unique so I say get after it if you want.. just don't be suprised when a few people laugh.

On another note, I've seen an fg2 front end on an ep3. That was interesting to say the least.

Re: RSX Front end conversion


has anyone seen this kit before? I found it on a german site. It looks ok, im not a fan of the bars over the holes in the front. and the rear bumper is disgusting. But other than that its clean haha.

Re: RSX Front end conversion

i had the crazy idea that a 7thgen coupe with an rsx front end with the mugen hood and bumper would look hot. would be even hotter if it was powered by a k20a but then again it would just be a wanna bee rsx lol
