I've currently got a Downforce front lip (painted) mounted on a Downforce 02+ front bumper. I saw this post where a Downforce front lip (same one as mine) is mounted on an OEM 02+ front bumper. Does that mean the inverse is possible? ie OEM lip on Downforce 02+ front bumper?
Ahh good point. Maybe it's a reasonable assumption that with Honda taking the, erhm, "cheap" route with the fixed headlights that the projector housings might be the same :D
Comparing the two parts diagrams the other significant difference is the plastic cover for the low-beam socket. The HID...
Alternatively, I could just run halogen bulbs in my HID-equipped car, correct? Is it as straight forward as swapping in bulbs and removing the HID ballasts?
I'm back with more questions! Are the halogen and HID headlights the same *except* for that opening in the bottom for the HID unit? The plastic molding looks the same, it even has the provisions for that opening. It's just... not open. I might be getting ahead of myself but it seems like I could...
Yeah I'm trying to get a set of USDM HID headlights though a number of Acura parts places online have cancelled my order due to parts discontinuation (which is very understandable). Not yet heard back from Mita on what "slate green metallic" is here but I'm assuming that it's just the standard...
Speaking of buying a new set of fixed headlights, do they come as a fully-assembled unit with the HIDs and ballasts and what not or do I swap those over from my current headlights?
Yeah totally, it seems like you'd have to take them apart anyways to swap left-to-right (or right-to-left, lol) the beam cut-off plates. https://www.nsxprime.com/threads/02-type-r-headlights.199361/#post-1923694
And to swap the white housings, you're gonna need to take them apart anyways like...
I'm toying with the idea of grabbing a set of NSX-R headlights for my fixed headlight-converted 1997. I've been piecing together a few things that I wasn't aware of before, namely that not all of the fixed headlights are HIDs (mine are).
Let's say I grabbed a set from Mita (which Marc says the...
My 1997 came with the lower portion of the Comptech airbox which I removed to try out the SOS intake snorkel (didn't like it :P). I found an OEM resonator/snorkel and installed it and realized it doesn't actually directly draw air from the vent. Its opening sits right above it. Photos attached...
