Rep Power: 0 Someone asked why I'm doing this it doesn't add speed. I got into an accident so might as well fork over the cash now and do something nice. But I might just throw a kit on.
Hey guys, I've actually seen a EL conversion on hour 7th gens....and honestly it looked amazing.....the car looked very classy and sporty something like a Benz CLK, see how it has a sporty but then a classy look....it has that effect....plus the guy had the EL skirt packaged offered by Acura....and it was slightly dropped and had a simple looking aftermarket rims.....
it looked amazing, its made me want to do the same thing ever since I saw it.....
take it from some one that has seen it..... DO IT!!! you wont be disappointed

I hit a parked late 70's Impala. I hit a patch of ice, fish tailed, got it back, hit some dry pavement then some more ice and skidded into it..

Naa, my claim got faxed to the shop today so I'm going to call them tomorrow and ask them if they'd do it with the EL front end instead of the normal Civic, I'm guessing it'd run about the same.

Rep Power: 0 RSX conversion will be more than juss buying parts and slapping them on.
I'd say for the money/looks ratio.. the 04 Civic conversion. But if u can do EL.. man.. the EL looks nice and u'll be the first!

why would you want to do a front end conversion when it adds nothing to your car in terms of speed? with that conversion your car will move no faster. My advice is focus on the make up of the car after you have it pulling at least 13's but to each his or her own

I think both of those front ends are ugly. maybe the 04' style would look nice with some factory-fit foggies and some decent 15" alloys, otherwise- id just find a modest/conservative aftermarket bumper to stick on there. You'll save money, and be unique. you ca use the money u save toward something else to slap on your ride.
BTW- because acura is hondas luxury line, my guess is that their parts will cost more.
