Something to ponder....

Does anyone think, or know, if the front bumper, hood, and side panels from an Acura Cl or Tl would bolt up to the Accord? I just wanted to know this cause they are basically built on the same chassis. I think that an accord with the cl/tl face lift would be interesting......

The have basically the same chasis but not close on the body. It might be a well fitting conversion in the end because in terms of size, it will look right but it will def be custom. Defineatly fabrication involved.

hmm. never thought of that. i wouldn't mind having a TL for a front end. just like hatchback with integra front.

yeah i saw that. that was a ghetto fab. looks okay but it wasn't perfect for a conversion.

I remeber a CL with a 5th gen front end selling on Ebay. It looked terrible. I thought about TSX front end swap on 7th gen, but that would take some serious fabbin to look good.
