pics of series 1 and 2 DC2

[lovesil]

Hey guys, i have gone through all previous threads and it seems that there is a confusion on when is the series 2 DC2 (facelift version) out in aus! Therefore, can someone really confirm that! And if possible, can someone post up pics of 2 versions? If not, a link will be good as well!

[Bludger]

the first series has the headlights retracting inside the bumper, where as the second series.... the headlights are more flush with the bumper.....
don't quote me on anything cos i dunno jack

Thanks guys for the info. The pic is a very helpful in seeing the differences. However, i have looked at carsales.com.au and found all 97 model DC2 has the series 1 look?? How come?

By the way, i know this has been asked zillions times already! But can i go to a Honda dealer to buy a DC2R front lip/Side Skirt? And roughly how much would it cost?

One more things, is the back seat of DC2 reasonably sized?

[NeoNode]

Do I see angel eyes on a teg?Maybe you think the projector housing looks like angel eyes :p

[Savant]

i went to a honda dealer and the type r front lip was $739.50 sprayed to your colour.

Didn't even bother about asking for skirts. Just way to expensive.

If you find one anywhere i suggest you just get it because wreckers don't really have them either.

[Boost]

739? are u serious?.... god dam.. honda is always asking for ridiculous prices...
Im sure the series 2 dc2 started from 98+

[integraz]

I think its kinda like angel eyes ont he series 2 dc2.
where the inner lights have this sort of cut... which looks kinda like angels eyes..
where as the lights of the series1 dc2 is just a straight circle

where as the lights of the series1 dc2 is just a straight circleI kinda agree with you, but at the same tiime it could just be the relfection and angle of lighting. Or as NeoNode said "it could be its protective housing".

Are you sure? cos i ask the honda dealer here last Nov, it cost me $259 inc paint and fittings

[Savant]

yeah positive. it was honda in ringwood. After the quote i then said 'i don't want the whole bar, just the lip' and his reply was 'this is just the lip'

[snowman95]

1998+ is when the DC's got the face lift, thats why they call it a "98+ conversion"

edit: also for the full conversion u gotta change the rear tail lights (indicators are that pinkish clear colour) and the side indicators (from orange to clear) the ones in the front quarter panel (i think thats the right term), and the rear bumper

[fried]

maroon is possibly the most ugliest of integras part from the green - yet ur car is possibly one of the cleanest sexy tegs around snowman! love it!

how much did the front end set u back? for painting, for the front bar, lip and headlights?

[Boost]

Hey ken,

You will need more than that for a full conversion... beside the front and rear bumper, headlight, cornerlights, tail lights, you will need to remove the side mouldings, side mirrors are diff as well, there were a few other things but i cant remember...there is a post on T-I with the full listing of parts to convert to 98+

[snowman95]

Well yes a "FULL" conversion would require that, but a 'basic full conversion is just generally the main obvious changes from 98+'

but generally when TI talk about 98+ its the basic obvious changes, like the ones listed

if someone wanted a "full" 98 conversion they should just buy a 98+ teg :p

Cheers man, appreciate it,

i got lucky and score a ITR front, for ~500-600 from memory (disclaimer my memory does fail me often :p ) so it included the lip, headlights and indicators, and swapped my old front, headlights and indicators

painting just for the front would have been ~$200-$250 but i had a heap of other work done when i had it in the shop

[Teggy-Vtir]

98+ does come with side mouldings aswell
only the ITR has no mouldings

[Boost]

Yup thats right Tegggy

[lovesil]

Hmm.....what do you mean by mouldings? what's a moulding anyway?

[Flash_Gordon]

side mouldings are the plastic black stribes that run down the side of most cars. I think theyre supposed to save your car from scratches if sum1 opens theyre door onto yours. Someone should let them know they dont work very well...

moulding = black strip

[lovesil]

damn! the moulding looks ugly! Can we even take it out and get it sprayed with the same body colour?? or is it not worth it?

By the way, do someone has a pic of a DC2's rear seat! i just wanted to know how big it is for the rear seats!

[5poon]

You can paint them yourself.. Very easy, and shouldnt set you back anymore than $80.

[Boost]

yeh the side mouldings are really easy to take out, considering you know how to take off the inside door panels.

[toE]

Excuse my ignorance, but is that an aftermarket lip on the burgundy/maroon teg in the pic?

If it is, what sort of lip is it?

:)

other than bigger wheels, 4stud vs 5 stud.
