I'm in love with that kit! I think it's awesome. Has anyone in the US or on CL put that kit on their 97-01 ES? I imagine its probably a few thousand dollars to get here, on top of another couple thousand to paint and install... and of course you have to have 19's and suspension and exhaust... so you're probably looking at $10,000 or so... lots of our GS and IS guys drop that kinda money into their cars, but I don't see too many of the ES people doing it. If i had a spare 10g's and that car, i'd definetely do that though~

The kit looks pretty cool 
However, like most kits out there.....you have a huge risk if it's too low to the ground / road that you will badly scrape & possibly shatter the damn thing in steep driveways, large speed bumps, nasty pot holes & the like. People don't want to fork out that kind of cash if there is a good chance it might be destroyed that way. Just my opinion......I'm not even 100% sure if your insurance company will cover or replace it if something happens 
Just my two cents anyways.

LOL juan 
I'd give that kit a month on the streets here in Toronto. 
My buddy has an 01' Prelude which he bought new with the factory honda "body kit". They didn't even lower the car & his is pretty much toast & he's out over $2000. Honda said they are not responsible to fix or replace it.

I think this is the best looking ES on the face of the earth bar none!
This is not a joke, sometimes I think about picking up one in a few years JUST to do that kit! Better yet one of you 97-01 guys GIVE ME your car and I'll buy the mods!
