u know, the front end looks good... but only on 4drs... it just doesn't like right (at least in my eyes) on the 2dr

clean car overall (cept as some have said about the rims)

I like it. I think if you could find some sort of front lip and maybe a grille that looks similar to the type r it would set it off. I like the difference in the headlight shape and the design of the bumper. Something different for a change :thumbs up!!

nice, I'm on clubEL as well. I've got a Domani trunk lid in my garage waiting for paint.
oh ya??? Wuts ur user name? mines 97ej6dx i think haha

Thanks for all the comments guys im waiting for my check to come from the insurance company (or some one else's insurance company for that matter) so i can paint her and get some tires on my SI wheels i dont want to blow a bunch of money cuz i don't know how long it will take me to find a job that will work with my school schedual, but i think the SI wheels will look good for the time being I wish i had not messed the up other wise i would just have them re clear coated but one of the wheels had some surface booboos in it and i just decided to sand and sand blast them down so they were smooth and just paint them , i figured the car paint would hold up better and since the guy will paint my car i may as well have him shoot the wheels so i can get some tires on them Either that or locate some EL premium wheels ill post a pic below for those who have not seen them.. And for the lip lots of people that i know keep telling me i need to get a lip if the car is lowerd or it will look goofy.. so ill have to figure out from the EL guys what lip requires the least amount of modification and get it ordered before paint

here are what the Premium wheels look like

Quick update on the car, Its being painted as I speak,, Unfortunately its been a week and a half and the guy still hasn't finished it. Apparently he is working over time this week and has a fishing tournament this next weekend..... I'm beginning to think I've seen the last of my car for ever.. the color has changed to black due to the labor involved with sanding the jams so that a Moonrock metallic would look good. I had lined up an Acura EL Climate control bezel which looks different than the civic but the guy sold it before i was able to get a Shipping quote back from him.. he took forever to respond also.. oh well I'm trying to have some people on the EL forum search for one at there local junkyards considering they are only found in Canada. Another unfortunate t is that i still have the same wheels.. I will have them for a while until i find a job here at school. I don't have the money right now to get tires and paint the SI wheels but thats my plan with the SI wheels it wont look near as bad. I hope that someday i will get to see my car again!!!!

97 ? why is ur front end diff looking
Because...
Hey every one im new to this forum .. im part of the Canadian ClubEL (as in Acura EL) and i stumbled upon this forum as i was doing my normal Google searches.
I have a 1997 Civic dx Coupe and through the EL forum i was directed to a JDM Honda Domani front end conversion. It looks like a mix of an Accord and a Prelude.. but i like it and thats all that matters!!! Ne ways I did this conversion a few weeks ago and my car is being prepped for paint. BUT here are some pics of what it looks like Hope atleast some of you will like it!! PS. Dont pay attention to the wheels... they were off my sisters car I DID NOT PICK THEM OUT but they had good tires on them.. Ill be using SI wheels when i get tires.
