although USDM-front tegs can be made to look good, i have yet to see one where i didnt thing “a JDM front would make that look even better”

if ya plan on keeping the car and have the bones, DO IT. no questions asked.

and PLEASE take off that dual-feed front mount intake. its been proven like 34254 times that you lose like 3hp with those :facepalm

Maybe I will get another integra do it then, I dunno, I love the usdm in APB(my color), but I’ve been getting the typical “go jdm front” comments

You do JDM, then sell me the USDM for my Civic!

I like the USDM front myself, the JDM looks good also, but too much like an Accord…

I \<3 JDM front ends, as seen on the LGT and R34 (derr). Although in the Honda world, it’s not too different, it does look a ton cleaner.

I dunno, I think I’m going to keep the usdm front, I’ve seen like one other JDM front APB teg and it was ok looking, but I like the way the USDM body lines flow. If it was the 94-97 front however, that would have prolly been the first thing to be modified

JDM front is different but not necesserally (sp?)better.

Personally I think USDM is a better design, but it’s just too common.

Just spend the money on a crazy lip and the rest of the car to set it apart even more.

JDM is played out anyway :ahh

I have a hard time telling the difference between JDM and USDM fronts on Hondas. Not really worth it IMO.

Put that on and then leave it. The ITR JDM front end is getting wayyyyyyyyyy played out. Almost every Integra I see F/S or something is “ZOMG JDM frontend!!!”. Wicked played out. Keep yours how it is, add the lip and be done. Shit’s d0pe how it is anyways.

+1 theres relatively few cases where “being different” or “going against the grain” or whatever results in a superior look/performance/whatever lol

The JDM front is a cleaner look in my opinion, however like others have said… the type r lip on the usdm front still isn’t bad.
