Looks just like my car is what first came to mind but then I thought "hmm.... those houses look just like the houses in Hawaii" and sure enough you're in 808

That house next door (first pic) looks like one of the many houses in the Hawaii Kai area (not the house your car is in front of).

I guess I'm bored guessing neighborhoods. Nice ride man.....I love that color

Thanks for your compliments.
I went with H&R sport springs.

No, it's not chrome rims, I had some guy polish the rims. Only the outer flat area was polished, so the walls of the holes (?) are still the same.

I don't know about it looking like houses in Hawaii Kai, but the pictures were taken in Mililani.

Your ride is tight Kobe. I'm waiting for membership to go through with the credit union, and then I'll be buying my own. I can't wait

Your car looks so sweet. I especially like the first photo. That is one of the best shots I have seen of the Type S at that angle.

The underbody and rear spoiler really makes the car look fast and classy. Really brings out the sportiness in this sports sedan.

Silver really is the best color for this car after seeing these pics.

Congrats again on a great ride!

Do you mine if I ask you how much polishing your rims costs? Because I am contemplating chroming mine and it will costs me between $650 and $750. Thanks. BTW, your car looks really good!

Outlook,

No it's not photoshopped, those are H&R springs. Actually, I wouldn't mind going maybe an 1/2 to an inch lower. Thinking about getting some coilovers.

Panther,

It's tinted, 35% all around.

Polishing Rims

Could you go into more detail about how/who polished your rims? How much did it cost?

Thanks,

Los

Question

Are you sure those are H & R Sports. The drop those not look that low at all. I have H & R's and you can't fit two fingers between the gap. But the car looks sweet!!!
