Non pop-up headlights, looks so...JDM

Just wondering if anybody on here has a 3rd gen that came with non pop-up headlights, or if they were ever offered in the US. I just found out that some JDM models came with it. Has anyone done or thought about doing it? it looks cool, it looks somewhat like the accord front end.
here are a few pics

No the INX wasn't offered inthe US it is an awesome look though no doubt...

I sometimes wonder what a 3rd gen would look like with 5th gen style headlights...

it would pretty much look like he 4th gen accord coupe........

i thought about doing it, and found a place that sells the front bumper, fenders, headlights, and hood....but i decided against it...because im poor.


i have a picture of a 3rd gen with 5th gen headlights.......looks like ****

Please dont do these kind of photoshops anymore
looks so ugly, stick with the pop ups instead of the 4th gen headlights on the 3rd gen

I've seen a pic of a car that had the conversion. Looked kinda weird, didn't flow with the car that well.

I think it looks bad... I also think that it looks really old and makes the car lose the sweet shape of it... I dunno it maybe just me but I don't really like it that much.

It looks the same just the housing is clear, and you remove the pop up controler thingy, and reangle the light blah blah blah. And if you want a 3rd gen with 4th gen type head lights you want the ugly INX 3rd gen

^^ but the INX head lights are more shaped like a 4th gen than a 5th gen...

Actually I think they are the same part as the accord.. but I could be wrong.

well when you say non-pop up headlights you could get the INX version of non pop-up or the dont have to replace the front of your car non-pop ups which is just change the angle and housing

looks like complete ass if you ask me. i think its the body kit that ruins it though. a buddy of mine told me he saw someone who did this recently and it looked really good. have yet to see it myself.
