Disagree with the comment suggesting a more subtle color. That's damn near the only customization we can do to these cars without being called a ricer hahaha. I like that color. Cars not my style but its nice. I'd like it more without the wide body I think. Gotta get rid of the stock wheels and altezzas asap lol. Let's see under the hood!

to respond to several comment i have to reiterate several things, which is a little redundant, but whatever, here goes.
as far as "replacing the body kit" i'm stuck with the front bumper because of an engine swap (that my mechanic just notified me about, im not quite sure how that slipped past our radar the first time we checked it out) and the turbo kit that was done to fit this specific custom frump end.
as far as the wide body kit...i like wide bodies, granted i would've taken a different approach, but or now a wide body is a wide body.
as far as replacing the headlights... AGAIN, the front bumper is custom. they cut out the section where the normal Acura headlights would go so that the nissan lights could fit. so i cant simply exchange the headlights, or i will be left with large holes in my front bumper that i, again, am stuck with. Plus, i like the nissan lights, quite frankly the stock 3rd gen integra headlights are... eh... no offence. i like the narrow and long look for headlights, so in my view the nissan are preferred over the integra headlights
and about the back end, theres not much i like about it. i dont like the bumper, or the tail lights, but i can go to a salvage and pick up the tail lights for the low. I'm not going to worry about putting on a bumper that will, undoubtedly, look extremely out of place seeing as it wont have the same paint as the custom paint job done to the rest of the car. of course i may look for one if i ever save up the money to repaint properly
bottom line: this is how i bought it, not how i built it.
im asking several people to please do the following
1) read
2) come up with logical and intelligent criticism
to the rest of you, thank you for the advice, i will be considering all of it when i have saved up some extra cash and start purchasing things for my integra

Suggestion 1: Don't get butthurt
Suggestion 2: JDM front end, OEM for the 3rd gen
Just because it has a different motor swap or turbo kit has no bearing on the front end, make it fit. You may have to change a few parts but it really shouldn't be rocket science.
Suggestion 3: Now that the pre built car is bought, unbuild it a bit so it's more appealing to the eyes
