Scott 89T2, I just mailed them to you, thanks.
The kit is called "Octane made by VIS. I adapted it from a 94+ Integra, and molded it to the top half of a stock bumper(with light conversion). I also made the main opening 1.75" taller to flow more air to IC, oil cooler, and rad. The lights are from an 89-91 240.

Dude take no offence to this but why dont you just buy an Integra? Although it doesnt look that bad even though it not my style. Its cool that do all your own stuff though. Keep modifing, to each his own, rock on.

that is a cf hood but no inverse scoop just overalid the stock scoop,i kinda like it with the headlight spots still on it, the only thing is i would have cut out the peice on the headlight cover that goes top to bottm and put a screen in place for a little fresh air.

I was gonna vent the spot where the H lights use to be, but my caar sees rain! Which would hit the AFM and leading coil! Plus my filter sits on the other side of the rad support.

The reason I used a front for an Integra is cuz they are so similar in shape(ease of fitment), plus I had it laying around. There are a lot of cool front ends for Integras and any of them can fit with a little effort. **** spending 1K$ for one of 10 made for an FC, when you can get any of 100 made for an Integra for 250$!

I think it looks almost Bad ***! I would have cleaned up that seam line with some hand-layed 'glass, but the shape of the openings fits an FC to a "T". Way to continue the innovation, Fred!
BTW, do you have S4 or S5?

I like the lower front lip you have converted! Updates the look and doesn't stick way out like some front ends.
I would like the lighting conversion if it was a little more refined w/ a lexan cover and the car had a flat hood or the regular pop-ups in place.
