Default RSX Conversion

I'm getting a 96-00 civic and i've got some ideas on what i want to do about the exterior and i just wanted to see what everyone had to say.

First off i was going to do an Acura RSX front end conversion. I want to get a hatch but no one in my area is selling one so ill probably end up with a coupe. To fill in the flow of the front end of the car i was thinking about putting a Type-R wing from an Acura RSX as well. So. Tell me what you think. If you want to sell me a hatch and your in california let me know. Cuz im lookin.

I don't like the wing. I think the lower wings look better.

That's a Civic wing, negotiator. He is doing an RSX coversion. Make sure you get a "K" to go in there too. I wouldn't want the RSX front end if it didn't come with the motor attached.

Yeh, I know my picture was a Civic spoiler. I guess I didn't explain myself enough, (sorry). I was just trying to let him know that IMO, I think the lower, sleeker style of spoilers look better (whether it be a Civic or RSX style). And I have seen RSXs with that sleeker style of spoiler.

I agree with the sniper. Looks don't mean dick, i'd rather have the guts than the exterior. But its your car, and i'd be interested to see the end result.

its a shame you are out on the west coast derekfcc and not the east coast because I could do all your body work cheap. I did the integra conversion on my 90 hatch.

I MYSELF even agree with the whole "*****" before the looks but when your married, you've got a kid, and your not going to do a lot of racing around town there's no point in putting 3,000 towards power that will most likely go unused, but hell if i found an extra 3k in my bank account i'd drop a k series in there with a quickness.

oh and the conversion is availiable @ phasenine.com for about 1,000

Haha, Ya k compared to d series, but who can say that K isnt gay? I drive my friends Stock integra with the k20, and I feel like getting out and running, cause I might go faster. If you want your conversion and some ***** too, just mod the D. T3 turbo kits can go for 600 dollars, and run much faster than the stock K. And the HKS blow off valve will make all the girlies happy too. Sorry if these posts on the GO before Sho are annoying you, I kno you didnt ask about what to do to make if faster, but I guess thats the thing to do these days. The RSX front clip looks sick on a coup. I think it might look goofy on a Hatch. My Op. Goodluck with whatever you do.
