OK, I guess I should step in here due to my experience with Hondas.

The first generation (86-89) Integra had pop-ups. The second generation (90-93) has normal headlights, and the third gen (94-01) had the bugeyes.

Now that we have that settled, that photoshop picture is way out of scale. The headlights will fill up almost 4/5 of the width of the bumper, much wider then that picture shows. The Integra lights are also much steeper then the front of the FC, so they would have to be mounted either very low or high in completely custom bumper.

Cross-model Headlight conversions are possibly the ugliest things you can do to a car.

Forgive my lacking MSPaint skills:

To actually be anywhere near fitting, the lights would have to be mounted in the area the turn signals are now. That's way too low.

Cool or...............

You could do Audi A4 lights made into a custom housing just for the FC, then styled into a CorkSport border II bumper....... but that would be copying now that it has been done before. :-)



P.S. those trucks had my poor little rice burner surrounded.

the vent on the side looks odd, did you want it to look like a bmw or something? but the paint is awsome looks like a $4,000 spray, also could someone photo shop some bugeye integra headlights into the bumper on an fc including the depth that they have.

Yes, the beamer look is what I was going for it looks odd in pictures but in person it fits with the car pretty well. It mainly looks odd if you are so used to seeing 1000 FC's that never had one. Most people that don't know FC's thought it was a factory option.

that integra headlight conversion looks nasty. The audi looks badass.

there was someone on here that was going to put 4 piaa lights in place of the ftp lenses, but I don't think he has got it done yet.

is it illegal to have your headlights lower than where your blinkers are? I wanted to put get some headlights from a different car, small square ones. and put them maybe where My fog lights are.

I would think that the latest generation Honda Prelude lights would look pretty kewl, as long as the cover matched the lines of the car, but if they didn't it would be really easy to make a new lexan cover.
