I don't like when they change the lights... I prefer my lights the back looks nice I guess but the front man I love my pop ups. Maybe it's because when I see someone who wants to walk across the street I can just flip the light and let em go....

since we're talking about lights, i remember one of my buddies saying he prefered the hatch over the coupe because it looked less like an integra...anyone agree?

Paint the hood, trunk lid and spoiler white...if the car was all white it would really look nice. Great looking conversion...not an easy job! Yeah...all white with different wheels and it would be killer. $7,800...little high...maybe $5,500-$6,000...R32 front and rear, RB swap, 5 lug conversion, Z32 front and rear brakes...if the top and rear curtain (window) were new wouldn't be bad at all.

Nice bodywork!!!! It's not easy to make fenders, hood and bumper to line up like this. I like the front end, but don't like molded rear end.

if the rear wasn't molded and it had wide rear panels it would be flawless

On a vert that will look like total do do!! That would never flow with the body lines nor look balanced or even. It would look way to front heavy. On a 180sx it looks ok. But thats a very hard look to pull off. Just stick with a silvia front, cant go wrong there.
