it's almost becoming rice, that's kinda why I cancelled my front end. $1900 for just an aesthetic upgrade is alot. If I do it, it won't be till next year. I'd rather get cams, header.

Jonn, thanks for convincing me otherwise

yea erick, i have an R as well and i was just thinking about it the other day as well. I dont think its worth $1800, plus if u dont paint the entire car when they are painting the new front end, u will most likely end up with a diff shade of CW. And to paint the entire car properly, and not having it done from some 2bit operation garage will run atleast $3000-5000.

Also, if u ever wanted to sell the car, it will be harder with the jdm front b/c peeps may think it may have been in a front end collision. i think the jdm front is a weld on kit and not a bolt on kit, so that would compromise safety in case u were ever in a front end collision.

just my $0.02

Erick, instead of spending that coin on a JDM front, put it towards a fresh coat of paint!
