surprised this got so much chat, was expecting 2 or 3 replies; thanks guys :D

Ok, so a lot too read, lot of opinions and a lot to think about

In reference to the STI or Ultrex lips, yes i do like them but im not yet prepared to pay and gett them over here for >200, i could buy an Integra lip, eventually scrape it to **** or break it and replace it for the same price :)

IMO, the First Blitzen gen3 bars are fcuking dog sh*t and the second one is the fcuking cats pyjama's, i looooove the 2nd one. its on my wish list but isnt quite possible in my budget :(

No i haven't lowered the front yet (anyone at all got hook ups? I need MOAR LOW urgently now!!), so would be more willing to take the risk of the ultrex lip after that bcos the integra one may be too low.
As i said my mate across the road has one, a 97' i think so i can check it all out before buying. I really do like the look of the standard typeR one
How are sure are you Nick that it wont fit ours?? Because these US guys that have done have said that the lips needed a bit of molding for them to fit -Ill check it out either way to be 100% sure..

Another reason for me wanting this lip is also due to the fact that im pretty sure no1 in AUS would have it!! and i like that idea of being individual..

Nick your lib looks sweet in that pic with ur mate in the school uniform


Hi,
This looks fuckingwickedsticks.

You are absativefuckinglycorrect. Id ta-jizzle allll over it

Chris, thanks dude. I wonder if it would be possible to bake and open mine and spray the it silver!? (with heat resistant paint incase i need to reopen them later)

It full of win on the wagon, but I don't think it suits sedans.

I think its looks great on both!

I reckon they all look bad.



But that's only because they're all Gen3's.


Sell up and upgrade to a Gen2.

Just quietly.... See if you can get a second handy Type R bar.

tek screw the holy vishnu and all seventy two arms out of it.



Leave it black. For now


And paint your rims black.


And rip them LED's off your car.



And thrown them LEDs into a bonfire.





And burn them.

Because LEDs need to be burnt.

Them STI lips are $129. I can't see you getting a Honda one much cheaper then that.

Or wait and get a bar/lip like oztemples.


If your gonna mod, do It properly. Not cause it's a cheap :)

I got the dudes from the US to take some pics/get some dimensions and **** and I just couldn't see the front lips matching. USDM, AUDM and JDM bars are all different (apart from Rev C JDM/AUDM).

Hey, if you wanna give it a try, do it man. Chances are somehow you'll get them matching and looking good. I just wasn't up for all the hassle and time and fiddling. I found a mint condition, silver, RSK bar to fit my car for less than $450 imported, so I took that option.

Or, you can try to find a Rev C AUDM bar, which doesnt have the front lip, from a wrecker or something, they shouldn't be too expensive.. but your colour might be tricky. Following that, buy your own lip, ultrex/sti/homebrew..

My two cents.


EDIT: As Chris said, they are USDM headlights. They just appear silver, change your indicators to chrome bulbs and you'll get a similar effect.

You get over the bright red pretty quick - or I did, and painted them black.

I was thinking maybe painting them silver.. No room for air horns, which my dad and I installed in his commodore engine bay!

Also I forgot to mention, the STi lip is the one I meant :)


Not that I would put Air Horns on my Subaru.. a bit redneck.. but they sound good.

Ok,

Yes, good idea

^^^^^Posted Image^^^^^


Yep, Id attach black and then Pshop it to red to see what its like and maybe paint it when i'm going to paint all the other parts.

Yeap, had already given this good consideration -whats Powder coating generally cost? $300?? (anyone)

No.

No.

and No, that'd be gassing. Dont think the germans burned people to death in those chambers? :) and i dont think gassing would be detrimental to my fabled LED's :P

All Good points;
That IS good price.. any idea what postage is?
Im in ebay mode where something may seem cheap but really, the postage is shitloads to make up..

My way is not 'cheap', just more cost effective :)

Oh god.... too many variations lmao...

good points mate :)

In reference to the headlights -no, i dont mean eliminating the orange from the indicator, i know of the chrome bulbs; i mean the black dividers or frames between each section are bright silver.. see what i mean? it looks great huh :)
