[especko]

eh guys, want to ask a bit. what's the difference between 99 taiwan parts and original japanese parts apart from the costs. what's the difference in terms of materials used and the fittings as well as other differences? thanks in advance.

it might not be fit nicely like original...if you wanted to convert your 96 to 99...its better that you get ORIGINAL fender, grille, and bumper....bonet can use taiwan one cause no much different*

front parts u must change all like headlamps, bumper, grille, fender. if rear u can change the bumper only.

The difference between TW and HOP is the price issue and fitment. TW is hell lot cheaper but you have to sacrify fitment. The fitment of TW parts is really horrible and you can't get a thing right. No offense but when you look at those FLEK on the road then you will feel sick of it when TW parts are used. I can write down a list of fitment problem of TW parts but for god's sake, just forget about it and get the HOP.

HOP is expensive but it worth the money. If you can't afford it then just stick to preFL bodyparts and forget about the conversion, preFL ain't that bad and considering that it's getting rare now...

Honda ori parts sometimes have fitment prob too la... there's this big gap between the body and the left side of rear bumper for my accord. The right side fits nicely tho. maybe it's due to the bumper bought from hafkat shop... but even with the ori bumpers... still got some gap... geram

hmmmm....about the fitment....i agree....but as i'm concerne....my car look nice also....dunno what to say.....maybe some of u can have a look at my car....for me it's ok....but if u got the $$$$$....then go buy ori one....hehehehehe

i mean if u no $$$ to convert the rear part, u can change the rear bumper first but if u want to convert the front part, u must change all the front part.

You never know whatever happend to that bumper before it got into your hand, bro. My JDM EK9 front bumper doesn't fit quite right, there was a 5mm gap between the fender and bumper. The grille didn't fit quite right too. Later I replaced it with a brand new HOP bumper and everything solved. :shades_smile:

Rules of thumb, PP will get deformed eventhough there is no sign of cracked or scracthes and it's very hard to get it back and fit right.
