Not sure what I think about the front clip. It's nice enough and I think would look great on the right vehicle that continues its lines to the rear, such as an older vette. But, I think a simpler cleaner look closer to an actual civic front clip would work better and save you a few bucks. Of course, getting it to transition to the narrowed portion is a very challenging problem.

Good luck with it. And yes, I do think this has great potential with the go fast tuner crowd. 1000 lbs and 800 horse worth of ridiculously boosted turbo motor should get that thing well into the single digits in the quarter.

Posts like this are why I quit sharing how to build the car.

So, if there were anyone else out there who ever wanted to do something like it, thank Pete for killing my help on this site.
