VERY NICE, I-Mod. I think you've sold me on GT-1s....
What wheel width and offset are those? Also, what size are your tires.
Off Topic: As I look at your pics more closely.....you live less than a mile away from my parents!

They are 18x7.5 with 45 offset.
The GT-1's are nice. My buddy with an RSX just went and got some. Kinda sucks, I got them because not many people had them now I gotta see him with them all the time.

Dropped my grill of for paint today and they told me they couldnt paint the hood trim cause they wouldnt be able to get paint to stick to it. Any ideas I-mod, maybe I could send it to you and pay you via paypal and have the guy that did your do mine cause I dont know what else do cause I have been told at three different places that they can not paint it.

Cost of the SSR's is about $2100 with tires.
On the paint work, just tell them to lightly sand it and use primer then paint it. It will stick. They may not warranty the paint work for that piece but who cares.

The HID bulbs are from Japan. My buddy lives over there and sent them to me. Not sure of the details on who makes them. The box they came in was all in JDM lingo. They cost me $115 per bulb.
They have great output and are brighter then the 4300K stock ones. I have a loaner TSX right now that I lined up next to my car and the new bulbs have better output. All the HID nerds will jump in here and call foul and link the website that supposedly tested everything on the planet but I did a direct compare and it's a better color and brigher output. And in my opinion you can't test any better then a side by side comparison

I know the silver piece is horrible. The place that painted the grill said they couldn't paint it. So I have to go somewhere else or order the one from Japan.

so do mind. The body shop that painted my Mugen grill said they cannot guarantee no paint clip and suggest me to buy the hood trim. so I have to wait for my Hood Trim for couple of weeks, too
Hey CCColtsicehockey, is that a Phase Grill???
missing the Mugen logo.

bad news. the shop has to wait for the special primer for the hood piece to come in. i refuse to drive around with the chrome piece still there, so it'll be next week before everything is ready.
