Default Turning into a Korean-Spec Tiburon

Okay, as we learned in the last string I started, The Canadian Tiburon bares more resemblence to the Korean Tiburon than the US model. Our cars comes with the Korean-spec 15" wheels and the Type-R spoiler.

I do plan on ordering external parts for the car...I was thinking of the Evo-6 spoiler next year but I may hold back. It would be cool to create a totally Korean spec Tiburon with proper badging, side-skirts, and such.

What am I missing. I assume as I said the side skirts and the "Turbulence" badging would be a start. Are there any more?

A 1.8L Cam, retuned ECU (???), possibly a 1.8L header, a MAP sensor system rather than a MAF. That's about all I can think of engine-wise.

Seriously, that many engine modifications, huh?

Now are you joking about the clear corners? smile.gif
They don't look that great. I am still trying to figure out the appeal to those.

Man, look at your sig picture, imagine how much more of a "clean" look it would be without the orange up front. Too many Integras come rolling off the lot with clear corners though...

Are clear corners hard to put on?
