civics are and can be great little cars. They look cool, get good gas mileage, and after about $10,000 can be very fast lol. They're cheap to buy, cheap to drive, cheap to mod.

I think someone's definition of rice is a little off, but we've already had a whole discussion on that before. As for the value of a civic, I love my car. It's not the nicest thing on the road, but it is a nice car (IMO). Some people have to ride around in POS's. I'd be thankful just for a set of wheels, so I try not to take my car for granted. I also agree with kicker, it's a nice inexpensive car that doesn't cost too much too mod. I think the reason civics get all the dirt is because there is just too damn many of them riding around. And for the reason stated above, a majority of them are rice....i mean, uh.. "unfavorable"

and on the original topic of this thread, GO FOR IT!!!! conversions

It looks like it should be and it didn't say anywhere that it is or isn't so I'm not gonna say for sure, but I think so. I'd give them a call and ask before I order though.

i shot them an email about the kit and they never responded to me at all.
How hard would it be to get the kit for the s14 and then mold on a set of jdm s15 headlamps onto it?

That's the stupidest thing that I have heard in my whole life! Why would someone buy a honda civic and then spend a lot of cash to put nissan lights on it if they wanted a nissan? If they wanted a nissan they would buy one, but we love our civics and are into customizing them, and the nissan lights happen to look good on civics. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with wanting a nissan!

Im mad because S14mc Headlights are hella expensive. All these honda owners are wanting to fabricate them onto their cars, so when I need to replace a cracked headlight, I cant find cheap used parts anywhere.

Think its the "stupidest thing you ever heard" now smartass?

Your saying the only reason why your s14 lights are expensive and hard to find is because of us 'evil honda owners'?

Well now I have to take back my comment that I made earlier about that being the stupidest thing ever because this one just topped it, so I demote the other one to be second stupidest. S14 headlights are so damn expensive, but if all of these honda owners want to fabricate them onto their hondas that means that the headlights would become a higher demand and the manufactuers of the headlights would realize this and produce more and by doing that they could lower the price since they're producing/selling more of them. So with the higher demand, that means that you can get your headlights cheaper someday.
