Even if you did the swap on a coupe it still wouldn't be a "real Curren" but if you like the look I say go for it. I was considering doing the same to my hatch about a year ago, but I love all the lights to much to let them go.

I am in obsessed with this conversion. I emailed consynx about two weeks ago about this same thing. He has a kit for sale. If you're serious about it, shoot him a pm.

Yeah it does but that'll look so much better on a coupe though. Hatchbacks, if you gonna change it, atleast do a supra headlight conversion. biggrin.gif
