I'm getting my LED headlights and taillights done in Dallas with an HID convertion instead having to look for a JDM set on ebay.

Lol, I was just looking at that kit at work today and narrowed it down to a modified audi a4, (widened)tt or rs4 bodykit where the top half is removed. I'm jut trying to find out which year range is rounded like this i the corners I want t see how hard it is to make a custom body kit in this style.
if you dont believe me type those models in google images.

Are you referring to headlights or bodykits?

I believe he's reffering to the bodykit but about the lights, I was thinking Audi inspired LED/HID headlights and BMW inspired LED taillights. Trying something new since our 147's are nearly out of options.

I havent figured out how to do a ford Taurus style driving light. I like the diffuse soft appearance.

honestly, i think their popularity is due to the fact that first gens are so rare nowadays. I been wanting one for a few months now, but the ones i see are very high miles and need a lot of TLC; at least, that's what I've noticed in my area

There are definitely more 1st in the south. I think there are about 4 in my city, mine being the forth. I half ***'d a 2nd gen bumper onto my car. Fit with some elbow guess. Honda odessy JDM highlight is a clean swap for the front end (lost the pic).

Since I started driving my gs i've seen another one the same color rolling on 18s maybe, and an old lady driving the original gold one, which i'm dying to get my hands on because you know how those rich old ladies take care of those cars.... Also a white one with a torn up interior but the guy's askin for 2k, i'm trying to convince my boy to stop trying to buy my gs back and get his effing own! but i'm pretty sure there's a couple other 1gs in my town most likely owned by rich people lol, I just don't come out at the right times

m1k3yg... if the white is mechanically sound, 2g wouldn't be a bad deal. Interior is no big deal

Yea it really sucks looking for certain mods that they have for a 92 and up on sc and ls but no love to the real Gs. But thats y ours standout more. Timeless look plus heart and soul. RFS
