Wow I love the colour!

The black and orange theme is awesome.

Just need the A-Spec lip kit, blacked out healdights, and I'd remove the tail light tint!

I think the Type-S tail lights would look great with the orange =)

Who thinks this colour (whatever this colour is *hint hint* OP) should have come as an option from the factory?

yes, i completely agree with the emblem, looks kinda cheap in the same color

hmm, im guessing the color is "Imola Orange"? Like Amuse's S2000?

i like it. It is original but not to out there. I def prefer the orange A as oposed to the black A. NICE CAR MAN i would def say look into either the A-SPEC kit or the RON JON kit to really set it off but a kit is def needed with a nice drop.Also either a smoke tint for the front lights or send them off to JNC to black them out.Other than that car looks GREAT..

color looks good, you R definitely going to stand out (in a good way). the A emblem on the grill looks better chrome/silver, same color as the car is too much, cheap looking. IMO

you have a great canvas to start with, keep us updated

Not bad, you should look into the Type-s tail light (ghost version) that will look 10x better vs the tinted tail lights.

I also like the color a lot. The A-Spec kit is the first thing I would add. IMO there is just a little too much orange (the emblem) and also I think it would look better with the red tails instead of blacked out ones..maybe TL-S ones

But definitely has lots of potential.

re-do the tails, and you will be MONEY!

like others said, try the type-s tails or even the 07-08 base.
the blacked out tails LOOOK HORRIBLE!
