03-05 Euro-R or 06-08 Euro-R ??

Hi guys,

I know its great that i have a choice between these two kits. I currently have the 03-05 euro-r front at home. However, I know someone who can get me the sport (06-08 Euro-r) front bar for me. I have always preferred the 06-08 kit.

I am soo confused as to which kit would look nicer lol.
The 06-08 is smoothe whereas the 03-05 is more unique.
Im leaning towards the 06-08, gimme some advice! :(
I also have the euro-r rear and side skirts (04) so it would be the complete look.

For those who arent sure how the kit looks like...

03-05

Wes

stay with the o3-05.

the fog area looks meaner with the 03-05,
the lines next to the fog on the 06+ makes it odd looking.

06 euro r kit need to mod it to fit your 04??
if it need then i will go for the 04 euro r kit
my 2cents

03-05 for sure

Nah it comes with the 06 bar and lip. I have the grille already for the 06 so shouldnt be a problem.
I like the classy look of the 06 but the 04 does indeed look more agressive :(

i have 03-05 euro r grill.
they doesnt looks different, but they have different serious number.
i just put on the grill myself, it is very easy.
but u may have some problem put on the raditor cover after u change the grill.

I have both grilles. The 04 and 06 grille are different also in appearance. 04 has honeycomb design but 06 have a rectangular grid like appearance. Not sure abt the radiator cover though.

06+ for sure ;)

Where did you get the 05 bar from and how much was it? I really like it and would like to look at getting one also.

i dont wanna hi-jack the thread but while were on the topic of front ends will 06-08 grilles fit an 04 and another question whats required to make a 06-08 front bar fit an 04.

Thanks!

Correct. The 06 grille is larger thus wont fit an 04.
The 06 bar will fit an 04 without any changes ie. entire bumper swap.

Suntzu, i got it from a friend from singapore. He was able to source the kit for me. I will most likely order the 06 which means i should be selling the 04 front lip in a few months time.

c'mon guys...back on topic! :p

06+ for sure ;)

'06+ for me too.
The vents make it look more racey.

06+ if you dont mind paying for the bar, why not. On the side note the 03-05 one would be more unique as the 06+ one is identical to the euro sport we have here in aus.

06 without a doubt

dang if only i had my portable hdd with me haha (got lots of euro photos on there ive gathered over the years)
those pics dont do it justice =p

^ hahaha
Yeah i know the 04 looks good too. Its really hard to decide as they both have their pros and cons.
lol enkay, i have 270mb of euro pics :o ... is anyone the same or am i just too obsessed :p

^ i like that better, but that's coz i have an 07/08 CL9 :)

03-05 euro-r for sure!!

06-07 is exact same as sports... so u wont be unique...

plus i reckon 03-05 is way sexier! looks more like a race car!

^ nah my euro isnt fast enough to be a race car so thats not a reason for me! :p

I think i've decided to go with the 06+ kit.

I should be posting up the 03-05 lip in the next week or so. Im suprised abt the interest for the lip thus far... Makes me wonder if i should just stick with the 03-05! lol

im 2nd that. too many sports are on the road. 03-05 looks cleaner IMO.

this is what my one looks like. but i can not put on the raditor cover.
i bought the euro R grill limited edition from USA.

lol i think you need the jdm radiator or you can mod your one a bit to fit. Mmm i don't really like the red honda badge on the euro personally. I think it makes it look a bit tacky, doesn't really match, but each to their own =)

I dont like badges myself. If I had a "real" EuroR I would debadge it too.

*waits for the EuroR badge lovers to start hatin. :D

i tried to mod my old one, but i think it does not work.
for the red badge, it come with the grill.
dont u think it just like a clown =)
anyway, it does not matter.
i have silver badge at home. just lazy to change it.

i dont think this looks tacky:

lol i only put my euroR badges on so that when i beat WRXs (on the dragway) people say "daaaaaammmmmnn i want a honda typeR" its like free advertising for honda :p they should pay me or something...

rofl mate.
haha honeycomb grill would seem like a pain in the ass the clean.
red badge suitability really depends on colour and how your car's appearance is too.

damn i need to take the initiative to find a place to install my luckystar kit.
i am so lazy and busy.

I think it looks good on your car though, must be the lighter silver colour of your car, matches with the red Honda badge :p

But same as above if it's not the real deal then couldn't do it, me personally I love the stealth look no badges or as little as possible...but thats just me ;)

hahaha true, i like to think of it that im putting down the same power as a euroR, so i half have the right to :p lol

euro in itself is already stealth enough, no one suspects a family car to be quick lol besides, my badges are there to warn people :cool: lol

rofl it's almost like saying a nissan pulsar has a NOS sticker. But better.

Don't know about honeycomb but i just recently installed the grill off the limited edition sport euro on mine and easy to clean (not honeycomb)

You spot on their, couldn't picture graphite with red badge, needs to be stealth for graphite colour (black)

lazy...busy, which one is it.....? ;)

HEY DON'T DISS IT,
i did see a Triple S pulsar with NOS decal and NOS seat covers.
In the blue, and it was HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!! :D kidding.

and i am busy, juggling F/T work and P/T uni and pretending to be a beached whale!!!

MY 06 + for sure. It looks less add on than the MY 03 -05. Both are nice but the MY 06 looks more professional IMO.

i've gone through all the hassle to get the badges and here u r dissing it :p

also, i don't have half the power the euroR does, but i look like one 99% on the outside so do i have half the right to put it on? :D

I have the euro-r grill as well. Looks great. I dont have the type-r badges due to the sacrilegious nature of such an act. Amen.

if everyones so in love with the 03-04 front bar ill swap someone whos got an 05-06!
