Rep Power: 0 Yes or No - Ferio RS Conversion?
Hey guys, here's what I'm thinking. I am wanting to give my 2001 Sedan a unique look. I'm all about keeping as many parts as possible Honda OEM. It's just that Honda of America never released much stuff for the Sedans. But, in Japan, they have the Civic Ferio RS, a JDM Sedan, that has it's own :
- Full Bodykit(its fiberglass, but I would only get the sideskirts, get the USM Coupe front/rear lips)
- Coupe style headrests(donut shape)
- RS front upper grill(can be seen in the JDM section of optauto.com)
- Honda designed JDM HID headlight housings(very useful for me, as I have USM cleared headlights with DIY HID's already)
- RS Chrome Rear Badge(I already have the "FERIO" badge)
- White Face Gauge Cluster(will probably be in km/hr - but if I can get it, I won't care)
- Sidemarkers(the Ferio's come stock with sidemarkers from Honda)
So, do you think this would be a cool "conversion"? Just want your guys opinion. I'm probably going to go ahead and do it, provided I can locate sources for all of these parts. All I can order right now is the bodykit. The rest of the parts will take some time to find sources for.
EDIT : forgot a couple parts.

It is better to have the means, when you have the need; than to have the need, and no means. G32

Rep Power: 0 It's a great (and expensive) idea... keep me posted on the sidemarkers and headrest. The donut headrest mainly... I hope I can find one in grey!!
