That's not my Honda... I'm trying to figure out of that front bumper is made of. I think it might be a Volvo S40 bumper but I'm not sure...

Personally I don't like the rear bumper at all..

[NXRacer]

both front and rear bumpers kick major ass. I'm excited to hear what they are. (hope they're not custom made)

doing a quick search on the internet, i couldnt come up with anything on an s40 (new or old) that looks anywhere close.

Man, thats nice. The first two kinda takes that squarish edge off these cars. Second one is nice custom work.

The bumpers are from a '98 Accord.

[NXRacer]

not any 98 accord in the US has bumpers like that...........

Even the owner of that car wasn't 100% sure where those bumpers are taken from, but he said they are from '98 Accord, and if they are, they are from an Euro Accord.

[NXRacer]

wow thats crazy. At first i didnt think that would be possible, but now that i look at it, with some HEAVY modifiation, a 98 bumper just might work. the front at least. example:

i know this isnt the same kit, but if you were to cut the top of the bumper off where the crease is, it actually just might fit........

It doesn't fit there without modifications. A lot of work was done with the bumper to make if fit.

[wprocomp]

that don look to bad...I don like the mesh in the back tho...but other than that it fits well

[yaxley]

They're as original as can be :D.

[Osiris]

If they did get it off that accord then who ever did it has great workmanship cuz it fits almost to a tee.

[Neuspeed007]

thats definatly off of a kit, no custom made bumper hangs down that low. i love the back so damn much! i want my back bumper that low. i just need a kit soon

[3rd gen 89 se-i]

man rick that looks real good u need to find the guy who made em so we could put him to work.and if u don't like the kit sell it to me.

The front bumper is from a '98 Accord, and the rear bumper was made by cutting 2 3gen Accord bumpers are putting them together.

[Osiris]

Dayum, cant beleive it. But now that you say somthing it does look like that. Any other details on how it was made or where they cut?

[goldadition]

wow i really like that back bumper! not too keen on the front but i love the back. i would also like to know whay the details are for making that bumper. or if the guy would make any others.

[89Accord_R]

Are the tails painted? It looks like a translucent paint was used because the red still somewhat shows through the orange... either way, MAD PROPS!

[viking3099]

Looks great.. would be great to know how it was done...

Here are some project pics of the Accord. Don't ask me about it. I only know that a LOT of modifications were made and LOTS of glassfiber, bolts and screws were used.

old ass thread man keep your ideas in one thread lol

-the mad scientist
i agree


lol j/k i think it would be better if you could find a more squarer bumper for it cause the corners will either stick over the edge or look wrong, thats just my opinion though

[LiTtLe xOx BitT]

Wont work. First off those lights are way too long to fit in the small space provided where our headlight are. Second our body lines and width of the car are different. It will be almost impossible to get it to fit and if by some magical way it does fit it will look like ass because our cars are square and that bumper is round. And are you just going to have a bodykit front bumper on a stock car?? Just get a kit made for our cars.

i think he meens he is doing a converson puting the whole front end on it IE: hood fender lights bumper front thing be hind bumper that rad go's in

[LiTtLe xOx BitT]

So your planning on using eclipse fenders, lights and bumper but keep the accord hood and do some type of wide body kit? Im just curious, how much experience do you have in body work and custom fabrication and how old are you?

[L3G10N]

I hope you have planned a lot of money too. Don't know if you read in my post how much mine cost me and it don't have so much custom on it...

wat your doing is... taking your money, puting it in the toilet, then flushing it down the drain..... put your cash into something good man, youll regret doing all that shitty ass work for nothing.

by the looks of what you did wit that enclosure, it doesnt seem like you have very much experience..... but watever dude, its your money, your car, do wat you like. just dont do anything cause people tell you to..... good luck
