    Re: VIGOR trunk swap in Thailand.

    were talking about putting the center light on it without swaping the trunk to save on the expensive shipping

    I like the way mine looks now, but was there a 2-door Vigor over there?

    Are there any RHD coupes?
    That's so weird that they built them all here and then exported them. Did the rest of the world not want coupes or something? I guess it never really occurred to me that all you New Zealanders have four-doors.

    Re: VIGOR trunk swap in Thailand.

    Cool looking and all but umm, we drive accords, and the rear bumper doesn't have a spot for a license plate.. So unless you grab a bumper from a vigor too, its going to look weird.

    Re: VIGOR trunk swap in Thailand.

    The vigor had a piece that can be cut into the accord bumper from what i recall. I was going to do that swap but knew i wanted the xenon kit and would have to hack up a prelude xenon bumper to get the right look.

    I think i looked up the part numbers on the JDM Honda catalog back when things were actually available.

    Re: VIGOR trunk swap in Thailand.

    well my current bumper is in somewhat alright shape and could use that for an example to measure and color the outlines to get a similar look like the Vigor bumper. i don't think it would be to much trouble to do.

    lol whoever cut that boot lid up off that vigor sure done a butchery job of it haha.

    yeah there is a plate surround that you take out off a vigor to put in a accord bumper. if you're lucky, your accord bumper will have the outlines all ready to be cut from the inside

    Re: VIGOR trunk swap in Thailand.

    Man, I've been in Thailand for a month now and I still haven't seen one like this. I've seen JDM tails and I've seen USDM, but no Vigors. Letting me down, Thailand.

    Tommy, if you're in Bangkok on March 5th/6th and wanna show off your car to someone who'll probably sit and drool for the entire time you're there, PM me :P
