    Another version of headlight conversion

    I see this car all the time at car shows and I thought I would post it so you could see a different headlight conversion instead of flip-ups and fifth gen Prelude. Although I don't like this style of paint you have to give the guy props for the quality and time that went into it.

    What the hell is that, a car named star gazer? Awesome body work though. Paint is really nice too, but a little much. Hope he doesnt get in a fender bender, how would you match that paint!

    that is the ugliest paint job i've ever seen. I can't stand to look at it for very long, but the body molding and headlight conversion looks good. If it were a solid color it would look MUCH better...i agree with pmip...

    free hosting sites don't like bandwidth getting leeched by linked images. it's not their fault.. i used to work on a free hosting/email site called mynetcentral and image linking ROCKED our service costs. ended up shutting her down because we were too lenient on our users about space/bandwidth usage.

    anyway just right click on the [x], hit properties, copy the url, and paste it into a new browser.

    I don't like the paint either but that must have taken alot of work which I give high marks for. I attached the pic so you don't have to cut and paste.

    Plans have changed....The car is gone & im on to a new project....Nissan Maxima & 240sx/S13 Silvia....But the modders of the 3rd Gens still have my props. Not to many other cars take tha drive to do like a 3rd Gen

    It looks more like a Prelude to me. Look at the back side window.
