Lightbulb Integra headlights

instead of clear flash-to-pass lights. change to 2nd gen integra lights. welding old pop-up lights to hood and shaving. what are your opinions?

It's your car, do what you please with it.

I think it might look reasonably good. Someone has done an integra taillight conversion before... pics are somewhere on the board. Do front and rear and people would really wonder wtf is going on!

I can't really visualize what you are saying. Maybe I'm just not very familiar with that integra or something, i dunno.

Just get some EastBear lights. They will look pretty similar.

putting honda parts on a mazda, expecially a rx7 should be a crime in my opinion...

the integra rear lights on the FC just look nasty...they are made for the lines of the integra and just don't fit aesthetically.

Headlights are a good idea I think. I've drawn out plans to mount them in the factory pop-up locations and mold the casing into the front bumper. Done right it would look sweet...done wrong and you're liable to get shot.

well some of you experts just do a photoshop so we can get an idea of what this might look like. i dont want to say if it would look ugly or not, because i have no idea, IMO i could only see it looking ugly, but who knows, might actually like it.

If you guys would stop debating, he would build it and we could see what it would look like.

It's not like he's dropping a 350 in it, or worse, an actual _Integra_Engine_!

Something like this?



It was kinda quick, but the left side looks decent. I couldn't really do much with the right side, being a 3/4 shot and not knowing how to combine the corners of the two cars. The left is kinda nice looking though, and if you could get the corners to match up nice I could see it doing well. If someone wanted to photoshop a whole integra bumper on it you might be able to see it better.

there are at least two forum members around with integra light conversions. One has a 300ZX bumper with integra lights on his FC, and i think the other just has integra lights, the round ones, on his FC.

the car would look kinda funny and the hood doesnt look right at all i think you should just go with the lowered popups or the sleek kit

atticus, aren't those from a first gen integra? nevermind, hell, i dunno anything about honda's. If that's what the original idea was though, I'm gonna have to say I definately prefer the stock look.
