The money he spent on that he could've gotten a IS, and now he just looks like a fool.

Seriously, if you're going to spend the money to do all the body work, etc.. just buy a damn IS!

What's even worse is that he probably scored huge points at the car show for his conversion.

true, but he couldn't have scored high points if he'd bought the IS. The custom work here is part of the entire reason for the judging. i'd give him points for such a venture and a clean job doing it too.

A new Civic + this conversion and performance mods HAS to be more than the $30K needed for a REAL IS300. First, it was GS copycats, now this.

The door handles say mid-90's Civic, the taillights say IS, the engine looks Mitsubishi, and the body... ..well, that's a good question
