have you got pics of your car ?

if it's late 98, it can be either prefacelift or facelift..
but if the wreckers say the prefacelift doesn't fit, then i'd assume you have facelift..

i didnt noe much about hondas wen i bough the car.. but now i realise that one side of my car which i assumed it was in an accident by the previous owner , in which he replaced thge fenders and light with the preface lift since it was a 98 version.!

but i have rear faclift and facelift taile lights ??

your car is a facelifted model (99-00)

the rear tail lights can easily be changed if the previous owner chose to..

you'll find that the prefacelift fender and headlight won't fit a facelift car..

yer the fender and headliughts do fit but they dont sit in properly and theres a big gap between the bonnet , light and fender.

but yer i gotta get new facelifted panels and head light for it soon i guess.

if your headlights look like this then you are prefacelift:

Or if they look like this then they are facelifted:

I wouldn't look to much into the rear taillights as they will fit both facelift and prefacelift. so yeah
