Damn looks good haha I kind of want the 98-00 coupe front bumper now lol... When I got the car it had the 01-02 conversion already. I like the rear more for 01-02 but I think I prefer 98-00 front

Thanks man! I actually was looking into the 01-02 rear bumper when they first came out since it looks like it already had a "lip". I wasn't feeling the OEM rear lip on the 98-00 bumper back then...felt like it made the rear end look too big. So I ran mud guards for a while.

Now I'm glad I kept it all 98-00 just for the sake of keeping the car mostly original. I really dig the OEM round fog lights on this front end as well. I'm leaning towards some round PIAA's or some round Lexus ES300 fog lights (my friend had these on his Civic back in the day...they were pretty bright).

Yeah haha They look pretty cool and are way cheaper than the 01-02 ones..... the reason I never bought them haha 130+ for fog lights isnt worth it imo. not including tax, bulbs, kit etc. I want them because they look cool and i am not digging the covers on the 01-02 but so expensive.... If I ever crack my front bumper again I'll probably switch to the 98-00 one LOL but I would need the grill too because the grill is attached on the 01-02. how does that work

The reasons why the Accord gets the least amount of love/upgrades...

Our 1st gen Tacoma (has MT tires and a rear plate bumper now):
