a project to do over the summer 1 piece aspec

i was woundering of doing a one piece headlight. by cutting the headligth and the turn signal and just putting them together like the jdm ones but a-spec style. cut out the front like below( Sealth: i used somes of your pictures and if you dont want me using them just ask all i'll taken off) any ways then put Plexiglas over the turn signel and head light. it may need to be bent a little. Has anyone tried it if they havnt then i'll try it.
ill try to draw what i mean.



miss the 6 so selling the ef hatch and getting me another 6.

the 2 piece doesn't look like they are the same height at the joint... good luck.

You get points for trying something new..
most people just go for jspecs because they give the car a clean look with the one piece but go ahead and try it. It'd be neat to see a new style of lights

Which integra you goin for?

IMO the 98+ projectors are better and the JDM even better than that, but it's your call.

For your HID, you going with a kit or a factory xenon setup?

2001 intgra projectors. Hid kit. i'll be taking pictures of my progess. if i'm successful i'll do a write up on 1 piece headlight projectors. First i'll try to do one piece headlights, if it works then i'll try projectors. so it might take all summer but i'll do it. I'll be starting like in a week or two. i'll keep it updated.

I didnt do it. i got to the epoxy part then it went down hill from there. i got the front and the top done but the back was hard. I couldnt find a way to seal it so i just ruined a pair of headlights. oh well. next project is something. i'll think abour it,
