Nice shots, especially the first one

The matte roof doesn't look so hot though. Not a fan.

Thanks

The roof isn't actually matte... It's Carbon, hehe

CArbon roof = drooooL

That is carbon wrap right? Do you mind sharing where you got it from and how much it cost you?

I love the roof, my husband and I were waiting for another deal on a roll of the 3M Di-Noc carbon to do mine and a few other bits. It's good to see another VB with this done correctly (inside the plastic roof trim pieces)

Can someone identify the wheels on Maiku's TSX for me? (Maiku would be an excellent candidate, obviously.)
They look a lot like -- but obviously aren't -- Mugen GPs. They also look a lot like XXR 522s and MB Weapons. I'm all but positive they're not the former; less certain about the latter.
As you can probably tell, I'm really interested in this general (seven-spoke) style. I'm not sure Mugen GPs are still available, but even if they are, I'd have to rule them out based on price. Price is also a concern when it comes to XXR 522s and MB Weapons: I'm afraid I might wind up regretting the purchase of inexpensive (relatively speaking) wheels.
Basically, I'd like to find wheels that look like these but are of quality about the same as that of the wheels that came on the TSX. (I think I may have read years ago that they were made for Acura (Honda) by Enkei, but that's a very fuzzy recollection.)
