Default first post!!!!!right hand driver???

This is my first post but not my first time on HMT, I usually just read the stupid, funny and intresting ---- people have to say. Anyways -------- is my bro(nothing to brag about j/k Albert)and usually he has the anwsers to all of my car problems, but when it comes to cosmetic ---- he says "keep it stock looking" or "just primer it black, you could never go wrong with primer". I've mentioned to him that I was offered a 95 jdm right hand drive front clip for my eg6 for some ---- some guy owes me and was wondering if it legal to have a right hand diver in cali. and if it is how much trouble would I have to go through to register and instaling it. Any info or links relating to this please let me know asap thanks!!!

I never understood the RHD thing. To me it seems 100% pointless and just a huge pain in the ***. I live in America so I'm going to drive like an American and leave that RHD ---- to the JDM ricers

when I was in cali there was a rhd mr2 at the track racing, it passed tech inspection, but so did all the hmt cars, so I don't know about the legality. if anyone gives you ---- just tell them to go haress the mail carriers.

RDH would be kinda cool but too much work not worth it. although i would like a real sir or replica.

if your car was actually an EG6 it'd already be RHD. leave it alone, yes it is legal (as long as it is done well and refereed) but it isn't a good idea. cops LOVE to pull over RHD cars. My buddy has a JDM DC2R and BOTH times I've gone for a ride in it we got pulled over

that's because he thought a child molester was driving, but then he found out it was rhd once he got you on the side of the road.
