Default Anyone thinking about a front end conversion...

Hello to all,
I'm starting a aero company, and we're getting idea's on pieces to make. One idea, was to do a 96-98 Civic front end conversion. I feel the headlights are to small for the car on the 95-99 neon, and a conversion might look very nice. We are already in the process of this conversion, but we're asking around to see how many other people might be interested. It'll consist of:
Custom Civic bumper ( nothing to gaudy, something clean.)
Civic bumper core( removal of the stock one is just unbolting, and you will probably need to drill new holes for the new core.)
Civic headlights ( more than likely only going to provide the stock lights, but possibly the aftermarket projector lights.Adaptors included)
Slightly wider fenders to match the conversion
Custom hood ( offered in either standard fiberglass, or CF eventually.)

side skirts and rear end may also come along eventually, but this is just for the front end conversion at the moment.

This will be a purely bolt on affair ( aside from having to drill new holes possibly for the bumper core.) Fit ment will be seamless ( as we will provide pictures of an install, and include directions so the install goes smoothly.)
Prices aren't determined yet, we haven't finished so we can't assume how much it will cost to produce, but possibly in the ballpark of $1000-1200 ( CF more)

This is not a sale, if you are interested, please let me know so. Available purchase date not confirmed as of yet, we just want to get an idea if this is something we will go ahead with. Thank you for your interests.

Sounds interesting, although I like my neon as a neon not a honda. I might be interested in the headlights, do you have any pics of this stuff?

Civics aren't bad looking cars, but seriously, anyone wanting to make that conversion is a moron.

I would like to see a kit to make the front end like an SRT-4.
That would be sweet.
Screw Hondas.
