So the guys on NT were telling someone that it was impossible to go from 05/06 to 07/08, and as far as I can tell, its EXACTLY the same as going from RD1 to RD2 what with the rad support being swapped out. Everything else should be bolt on. Then someone randomly posted that a guy with a 2000 made his to look like an 08. I checked the link like WHAAAT?

Trunk fused with the GKs, Fenders are fused with the GKs, new rear bumper, new front bumper/lights/hood.

CRAAAAZY who is this kid?

but why would you want to do that?

i could maybe see 05-06 for the better looking front bumper and the possibility of a different choice in a cf hood but damn that is alot of money spent in the wrong ways.

Dude I drove an RD2 for about 2 years. I think they look like butt. I think there are great examples of them, but I'd never choose to drive one. I was developing parts for em, so I drove it for a couple years, and hated knowing that everyone I drove past had this impression of me, as the kid who's so proud of his ugly ass car, lol.

Looks like this dude even went as far as to include the glass sunroof/moonroof from the donor car?

The last thing anyone on this forums needs to care about, is if I'd drive their car, who cares. And what does my intelligence have to do with my taste in the cars I'd drive fatty? owned.gif nana.gif This thread wasn't about my personal taste, just that I give this kid big credit for lots of hard work. There's always gonna be that "I like my gen better than yours", and I would hope so, considering most of us had the option to get either one and made our choice.

Props on the work, and I like that gen tiburon.. they look good. But it doesn't look good with RD2 doors and curvy sides. lol. For what was done, it couldn't have been done any better in my opinion.

On and Blue, I mentioned RD1s ass ends look like the faggot child of a 90s ford taurus and a soap bar (that you used to wipe your ass). That comment was in regards to the 'spoiler-less' look some people on here are so fond of. I guess they also like ford taurus' and asswipe soap bars.. smile.gif (I must, cause I have TWO!)
