The car is actually a rebadged Acura 1.6 EL. Basically the same deal as the 7thgen ones...
Saw one of those once down here in Monterey, CA. :P went around the block to confirm it. Saw a 1.7 EL once too, they thought i was stalking them. haha

Thanks for all the comments. I'll be adding a few of my DIYs over the next few days.

simple: they were new in that picture lol. I just used rotor cleaner and washed the wheels after installing them.

Yup, I can never go back to having stock headlights! Made such a big difference. It's pricey, though!

Nice, Montreal is a beautiful city. My trunk has some Polk Audio equipment. 3 amps and 2 subs. I've always been into audio, even at home:

I'm using SR6500 components up front. They couldn't fit in the stock location because they're oversized so I had to make my own pods.

Close. It actually is a Civic, but it has an Acura 1.6 EL trunk lid. I was always curious why they were never available in the States. They're pretty much exactly like Civics but only available in 4dr with the d16y8 and some premium options like leather and a sunroof.

Some people with civics will get the el conversion on their coupes and hatches since they weren't available that way from the factory. Here are a few:

Thats because they are basically the same thing since europe doesnt have acura. We have a crap load of car dealers over here that are not made over there in europe, japan, or australia.

I am wanting to do this to my ep3. I have to get the 04-05 ep3 headlight conversion first. Then after I do that I am going to do the tsx retrofit in them.

Yeah, I like how it's badged for honda though, like rear, front, and interior
Looks cleaner

I saw this guy who lives nearby, had a RSX, badged with "Integra" and the red honda logo front and back

and all i could do was

Well, I cant really say anything, cos some reason I have a strong urge to get a Tc, TRD the grill, strip the badges, and put a Honda, Civic, and Si badge LOL
would be fun

The RSX is the 4th gen integra if you didnt know that. If we did not have acura like europe and japan it would still be called the honda integra. Japan has the 02-05 honda integra type r which is the rsx over here except it has the k20a in it. So he might be trying to make it look like that but I dunno.
