born2blaze, allow me to be the first to welcome you to the forums. Your car is very beautiful also. I especially love the front end with the Modulo grill and sports bumper. Leaps and bounds ahead of the Acura "shield!" I also like the wheels with the Honda logo on them. Great job with the car!

All Im going to say is wow. Looks nice. That Modulo Sports Grille is looking real good. All you need is some coilovers. maybe some tints. I'm not sure about the CF overlay for the cup holder area. I've noticed that you didn't do the CF for the disc bin. Do you have the 6 disc CD changer? Anyways Looks Good! welcome to the forum!

Welcome. Car is nice, nice and nice.
How is the reputation of this car in your country?
I'll be looking for a new car soon. However, I have a hard time choosing between this car and 200bhp hot hatch (Golf GTI).

Very nice, good looking car!

Welcome to the forums.

I'm digging the pedals, I never thought I'd miss them after having them on my 07 Si and 06 Alti SE-R.

It's a small detail but I like how you guys over there get red for the hazard light button. We get plain-jane blackish gray.

Nice looking ride!

In european version we have "plastic wood" on cup holder area and window controls. I personaly hate it, and it was one of the first things on my "to do" list:

i like how you went with black rims to go with the paint, i personally likes a chrom lid black rims, but urs looks great too!
and the CF are pretty interesting, im not quite sure if i like them or hate them..but compare to the wood trim, i'd take the CF.
sweet ride

Welcome to the forum.

Like the Modulo Sports Grille also. Marcus at Heel Toe is selling the red hazard switch as part of his JDM order.

Agreed with your choice of CF instead of woody look. Loved those pedals, got a set from the UK for myself. Too bad they don't offer the ELS sound system in Europe, you would have loved the sound.

Again great job and one nice looking car.

Lower profile tires would look nicer but with the roads in poland thats just asking for some bubbles in the tires and low profile tires I do not belive they come in winter tires and the winters are harsh

\
I likw Scirocco but we don't get that in US. Even the new 2010 GTI, we gets the old 201bhp engine. All cars I've owned are Honda products. I don't know much about VW reliability. What I've heard is :thumbsdow along with Audi.
TSX/ Accord is the model that I can trust for long term ownership without a second car. It's so balanced for my needs. Good handling, decent power, reliable and elegant. However, GTI is cheaper to tune, fun to drive and faster since it's lighter with more torque.
Civic Si (US Civic sedan with 197hp), GTI and TSX... so difficult to choose one.

Good job with the photo editing

Here goes:

Mugen exhaust- Yes (although Horsepower gain is probably minimal).

Shark antenna, window tint, mugen badge, debadged H and yellow foglight also good.

Red Accord badge seems out of place.

If you blacken handles and window trim as well as exhaust tips, would make the car too dark. Contrast is good sometimes otherwise the whole vehicle becomes too dull.

Red taillight looks good, in Canada, you are not allow to tint the white Reverse lenses, not sure about Poland.

Post new pictures as you perform the mods and keep up the good work.

If reverse light after tint will glow to redish I have an idea to cut H logo on it. In Poland its illegal to make dark taillights (no word about red conversion) and 180' front windows tint. But many people dont follow that rule

Personally, i feel like the chrome trim/chrome handles are currently giving your car a TON of contrast and it would be a shame to see you black everything out. Especially after you tint the windows, there is a fine line between tastefully "murdered out" and just going crazy and spraying everything black. After you tint your windows you will want to distinguish between the body lines of the car and the real estate of the windows, this is exactly what the chrome trim and handles will be doing.

Great progress so far, this is one of the only 2g's i've seen that have been making me take a second look at a new TSX. Thanks for that :P
