headlights look like this?
http://godspeed.hack.net/cwestin.html
In the middle of the page there is a blue civic with a c-west front. After much debate i think im going with that front however i love it with the headlights. Can i do this conversion? Where can i get the parts? How much would it cost? Can i do it with a normal hood? And if i stay stock lights will they still fit with the c-west front. Sorry for so many questions thanks all |

to go from 96-99 you need
bumper headlights grill fenders hood and radiator support..... i personaly feel that it is over kill... i mean 99-00 headlights are cool.. but just not worth all that changing and painting.. the headlights int the pic are 99-00 ctr headlights with eyebrow as stated already.. |

but if youre getting the cwest front (I love it too) you'll just need the hood, radiator support,grill, and the lights...oh and the eyebrows if you like em.
Why not just clear your oe headlights and put the 96-98 cw front on? Heres a pic of the same kit but w/ just cleared headlights |

yes be sure that you get a REAL CW kit none of that "CW Stlye" garbage. I dont know where you could get a real one though...
as for the clear headlighs Id try ebay, or nopi.com...just dont get any of that APC crap either. If you want them even cheaper hit up a junk yard and get OE lights and then clear them yourself. |

well...with the pricing being "Call us"...it could either be real or not...maybe its real and they have the really high price (like it should be <$1000) or its not real and the pricing shows it. You have to call and ask the price and then ask if its real. If they lie to you and you get it and its a fake...they are liable andyou can sue them...but thats a lot of work...you just have to trust em.

can you read Japanese???
http://www.c-west.co.jp/index_1.html try this too: E-mailFinfo@c-west.co.jp TelF0798-72-9000 If you call youre going to have to ask for an english speaking person "Moshi Moshi. Ehgo des kudasai" (thats not how its spelled but its phonetically correct.) after that someone that speaks english should come on and help you. The front costs like 33,000 Yen...meaning around $330...= real CWest. |
