Look at the tires - those wheels would last about 2.6 minutes around here.

Dont give me no shit about how its JDM, or how honda makes acura On your registration, it says "Acura" not "honda" take them ugly red emblems off and put the acura ones back on there.

Oh BTW, nice fuckin rims, looks sweet

You're right...I'll go buy one of those cool white APC Acura emblems instead...

Wheel gap is still insane considering they are 19"s, but I can't lower it. My front end barely clears the ground. I have about 3" clearance at the most. Since the kit came from Japan I don't really want to bash it up.

Yes...they are Axis Hagens...they don't weigh much more than the 16"s DC2-R rims I just took off the car. The tires are 225/35/19"s. I assure you they aren't plastic... :P

And yes...(sigh)...the paint color is off. The X is Taffeta White..the kit is Championship White since it was made for the Type R. I was actually going to get the kit painted, but my friend was selling these rims for a deal that I just couldn't pass up, so I jumped on the rims instead. Maybe one day when I reach big baller status I can do all this stuff at once.

And finally, yes I was going to have to sell this car so I could go to school. Instead I went and got a 2nd job and worked 7 days a week to pay off some bills. So honestly right now I could care less if my wheel gap is huge or my kit doesn't quite match....I'm just glad I have my RSX!

You're right, i drive a white Acura, and have white Acura emblems. The horror. Lemme go buy some red honda emblems, and put em on my acura.

If i buy a Lexus, will I be cooler if i put Toyota badges on it? I was thinkin about buying a G35, the first thing i ll do is cover it with Nissan emblems.

LMAO that "black shit" is a set of splitters made by Chargespeed, who also made the kit. I also have a set of canards but I haven't put them on since you have to drill right into the bumper

Interior color is tan...unfortunately that's the color on all the white X's...I HATE IT!!! I would love to switch it out to the DC5-R red and black.....a girl can dream can't she?

The tint is limo on the sides and back hatch....the driver/passenger windows are the darkest legal allowed in FL...I can't remember the % on that.

Lol, I know what they are - I just don't like them. The kit doesn't look bad, but the splitter just mess it all up. Looks like someone dragged the splash guards out from under the car.

I agree w/ Katana on the Honda emblems.
EDIT: However, I have just changed my mind. Ima run out and stick some Benz logos on my Maybach.

Don't do it to YOUR CAR if you don't like the way it looks.

I-N-D-I-V-I-D-U-A-L-I-T-Y Actually I just like the Red Badges on the White.

It'd impress me if you had right hand drive. Or if the car actually came from japan. Its ok that you like to pretend you have something different than you really do. Reminds of that guy with the Toyota Supra that made it into a Ferrari. Do you have "Integra" on the back also?

Same can be said..... why did you drop your car that low? The CL is suppose to be a entry level lux car, not a wannabe lowrider with a harsh ride and a fart pipe. :o


Everyone is different and you should respect that

.

Well let's see.....when I bought my car, the sticker on the window said that 95% of the car was made in Japan. What's that other 5%? Acura emblems maybe?

The kit and wing were imported directly from Japan. I'm a JDM fan. I was trying to go all-out JDM but it's way too difficult and expensive for my budget. So I left my Honda INTEGRA emblems on there just to piss off people like yourself. So I guess my engine, etc. is just "pretending" to be Honda? Should I go out and buy some "powered by Acura" seatbelt pads?

Maybe I'll rebadge it for the meet just for you.
