Good point, i would've tried a G35 head and tail myself but hey i aint big ballin like that

i dont get it, is the civic headlight better than the 3rd gen when it comes to beam pattern?

I mean, they could have kept up the image that a maxima is better than low end by fiberglassing some Accord headlights in there.

It's the paint job that made it look soo bad.... I think that maybe if they would've went more with making it look more like an acura legend or integra it would've been a lot better. I want legend taillights on mine.

Speaking of HL/TL conversions, has anyone ever done a R34 Skyline front end (including headlights) conversion and/or tail light conversion on a 3rd gen? Pics? Not that I would ever consider a stupid Civic conversion like this guy, but personally, I think the 4dr Skyline ER34s are sweet looking, but they're never coming over here, thus the conversion idea....
