Well after 1 short month, its done. I kept the 91-01 Burn Up front bumper, and added the '04 headlamps and CF hood. We did a few modifications to the bumper, including flattening out that awful curve at the bottom center, and filling in the 91-01 park/turn signal lamps. I still have to get cannards and put the CF splitter on, but here are the pictures.

Absolutly Beautiful!! Looks amazing! Keep up the good work:D
 
Wow awesome!
Love it!
You've given me ideas that my wallet won't be bout.. hehe :)

based on a scale of 1-10 for difficulty of the 02+ headlight retaining the 91 bumper conversion what would you rated at ??

Thanx in advance !

Btw, thank you for sharing the conversion pics.

Congatulation on the face lift. Have your HID lamps working already? Mine hasn't because the technician ask me to fing the female socket for the HID ballast.
 
Damn it.....That looks great, I really like how you filled in the center section of the air dam too. Awesome ride....:D

I just hardwired the positive wire to that male socket. I also could not find the correct socket. They work great!
 
any idea where i can get a set of the frontal "burnup" canards?

Dude, the car turned out great! I really like what you did to the front bumper. As far as the sockets, I used the 2 fog light sockets. They work perfectly. As another alternative, you can order the wire harnesses from SWR for a plug and play. Here are some pics of the harnesses:

Yeah I attempted that, but no luck. The sockets would slide on about 85%, but wouldnt 'click' to lockdown. No biggie as I only used one wire on that plug. It worked out fine though. I just have to go back and clean up the wiring job. After 10 long HOT hours on Saturday, I decided to wait awhile. Here are some more pics me and a friend of mine took last night around town. You can see the rest of them in the gallery here.

Thanks for all the nice comments.
 
Looks good Dave! Now you need the NSX-R spoiler in there! It will look really sweet!
 
That front bumper is a HUGE improvement, it looks fantastic!
 
That is a frickin sick GP white NSX. It rivals Armandos car...
 
Wow, very nice looking car! The new lights and hood look great on white.

I checked out your car domain page and also noticed that you have some really cool seats. Does it bolt-in or use rails? Hows the weight on the seats?

Thanks.
 
That looks absolutely STRIKING!!!

I love what you've done to modify the front piece. Everything you've done borders on perfection, at least from a stylistic standpoint.

Any thoughts on painting the mirrors black or going with a true Type-R styled spoiler?

I've taken your step on just using one wire to fire up the HID. Works great. Your NSX is one of the cleanest set up I've ever seen. Keep up the good work. Looks nice even with the stock spoiler.
 
NSXnBRLA have you ever thought of putting wide fenders for that gorgeous NSX. I think it will fitt better and look even more gorgeous.

No disrespect to Armando, but you can't be serious - they're not in the same league. This is an out & out whole other entity.
Very nice workmanship & finish - the prior paint job alone was superb in itself but this looks very nicely co-ordinated.
