I like the body kit, very subtle. Still... too expensive

that's not a RSX. it's a 1.7EL, as the title says.

i personally would like a rear brake conversion from the EL.

It's all in the angle of the picture. The Aero kit is exactly the same as the Factory body kit for the civic. (Or so i heard) Except for the front lip, which is slightly different. I'll let you guys know how it looks exactly when I drop by my Acura dealership in a few days. I don't have a DC tho. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/IMG]

actually the back end conversion would consist of the 1.7EL's trunk lid which would house the alternate tailight structure. everything else is identical... at least from what i can tell, i see EL's all over the place here and its hard to tell if they are acuras till you get to the back or front.

Hmm do you think its a direct bolt on front bumper to U.S. conversion? If any of you Canadiens Aye know anyone with EL's can you try to remove His/Her bumper and put it over your civic? Tell me how it comes aboot! Merci un peu!

I've seen the 1.7 Tail light conversin on a 6th Gen. civic. It looked pretty good I must say.

Oh yea for those that don't know, Acura 1.7 is the same as your Sedan EX but with leather and other goodies.

What's so crappy about it?

It's a glorified Civic... with leather & chrome goodies. At least they put a VTEC engine in there... they COULD have gone with the 115HP engine you know
