I wish I was bored enough and had the bodywork skills to waste my time doing that. :D

the first car doesn't look that bad. it would be better if it were black with black wheels and the polished lip.

The car wouldn't look that bad if it wasn't lowered that much!

I get all happy. My cousin looks at the mag. I tell him it has to be an integra. He laughs at me.

BANG engine is facing the wrong way.

Granted, the work there is creative, unique, and the jobs seem to look rather clean--but my one question is............

Why buy a Honda/Acura if you want to make it look like a Nissan? They could have had a Nissan that looked even better and spent that money on PERFORMANCE mods!!

I won't say I hate honda's (even though i have seen hot wheels with more performance value) but I can't stand honda owners that want to make their car look like silvias or skylines. If you want to do something different to an integra, why not do a psuedo-NSX conversion instead shamelessly ripping off NISMO material?

Sorry, don't mean to be a smart-ass, but http://www.zilvia.net/f/blued2/edit.gif

lol

Anyway--I don't think the R34 front end would look right on an S13. The S13 is so smooth and sleek, yet agreesive. But the R34 is more square-fronted and bold. I don't think the two of those styles would look right together on the same car. The S15 front looks pretty good on an S13, though.

i never reallyed liked skyline headlights but their tails are just beautiful.. however, s13 silvias have bold and boxy bodies but when ppl put their front ends onto an hatch, the sil80 doesn't look all that bad..

i would put an s15 front onto a hatchback, but those lights seem played out to me.. even on the hatchbacks.. too many ppl are makin sil1580s, silgras, silvics, silclipse, silr2s, etc.. etc.. that's why im going for a clean and simple sil80.. its cheaper and looks clean..

if i were to put on a silvia front, i'd want an all metal conversion.. and if i were to spend money on a welding job, i'd probably do something different than an s15 front.. i'd probably put an s14mc front end on a hatch.. that looks good, but i heard someone already did that in my area.. oh wells.. not lik i have the money to do a job like that anyways.. actually, i probably could, but i rather use it on performance, maintanance, and other good **** b/s looks..

look at it this way, at least it leaves people who WANT to get performance mods REAL nissans. it's not another wasted nissan, allowing people like us to put them to good use :D

All I can say is that no matter what modifications you do to your car, it is best to stay within the brand of your car when it comes to styling. I hate the s14 front for the civics, a while back in one of those mags I saw an r34 skyline fiasca on a Hyundai. total crap. And seeing a GT-R emblem on a honda accord makes me wretch. There are plenty of good ways to mix up the makes on a car, i.e. engine swaps, brakes, suspension, or intercooler upgrades etc. but cars are sold on their looks and thus are given distinctive looks. Mixing them doesn't look right. For example, the strawberry face on a Integra sucks because the body lines do not match up at all where the fenders meet the door. Bulgy curvatious front attatched to a stait line back. It just doesn't mesh.

I will shut up now:rolleyes:
