Which one do you guys prefer? USDM with ITR lip or JDM conversion?

BradC · 12-08-2006, 04:07 PM

jdm convo!

Loserkidwac · 12-08-2006, 04:07 PM

JDM ITR Front is by far the nicest front, i never like the bubbe eye front end, thats why I even preffer DAs over DCs...but USDM ITR is clean, JDM conversion can be very pricey

JDM ITR front end son.

Do I even need to post pics? Don't make me do it Jon!

Gorilla Unit 33 · 12-08-2006, 04:10 PM

i plan on getting a JDM front over the winter. Although theres no problem with either i like them both.

streetAssasin96 · 12-08-2006, 04:26 PM

definitley the jdm front end w/ the HIDs

CHR!S · 12-09-2006, 12:52 AM

i like them both, but i would personally go with the usdm front with the itr lip

TurboTagTeam · 12-09-2006, 01:01 AM

I love the JDM front. It makes the Integra look real classy. Plus it's got and OEM HID option.

Silverfc88 · 12-09-2006, 01:11 AM

I like the the JDM lights also. They just look good to me.

IntegrasAreBest · 12-09-2006, 11:37 AM

im torn between the two, i actually like both alot. dammit post some mo' pics up.

sesolcSTI · 12-09-2006, 11:44 AM

I vote for the setup in the first pic. That second pic looks like hell, super ugly.

if you had a 94-97 teg id force you to do the si-vtec front lip and foglights since that looks 10x better than 98-01 and the jdm front imo.

ill upload more pics when i get a chance to host all the pics

machocrx · 12-09-2006, 06:38 PM

^^^ there are more people with the front end conversion than you think, just look on honda-tech for some

vs.

ketchup! · 12-11-2006, 12:42 AM

deffinetly a jdm front of course with a front mount though

IntegrasAreBest · 12-11-2006, 11:23 PM

that white usdm front teg looooks bad ass! and that black jdm front one with the bronze wheels is badass. both look good imo.

CHR!S · 12-12-2006, 12:02 AM

i think your car looks real good as it is, but maybe if you got H badges for the front and rear, shaved the spoiler, and got some different gold wheels (advan rg2, gramlights, etc.) it would look sick

05Accent · 12-12-2006, 01:24 AM

jdm FTW.

dt98gsr · 12-12-2006, 01:56 AM

Well I love both. I just love Integra's in general. Personally I am going for the clean USDM look. But I guess if money wasn't an object I might go crazy and do a JDM front end swap with the JDM HID headlights, but on the other hand I love the look of a real clean USDM teg.

Not to mention I think a built teg with a USDM front is much more sleeper then a built JDM front'd teg.

I kinda hate seeing a JDM front a teg with no work under the hood. I would much rather have a clean USDM with some power under the hood then a JDM front end with a stock setup.

That is pretty much exactly what I am going for appearance wise, minus the wheels. And I still don't know if I will ever put the stock amber corners back on.
