OEM look 68mm Throttle body?
I have a Skun2 pro series 68mm manifold on my GSR with a stock GSR throttle body.
I would like to get a 68mm throttle body to match the manifold. Does anyone know of a company that makes a stock looking TB? I can only find billet aluminum versions that with stand out quite a bit and I want to keep a low profile for CA smog.
Thanks!

skunk2 "alpha" the "pro" ones are billet yes they stand out, on my old set up I had an alpha 70mm, after a few months it lots its "shine". In fact the thing got and stayed pretty dirty, see how dark it is compared to the actual intake manifold.

Re: OEM look 68mm Throttle body?
Years back I bought a Professional Products 68mm throttle body. I removed the decal on the front side and it looks as close to stock as anything right outta the box. I've been pleased with the quality and it's performed great. My tuner has never had any negatives to say about the throttle body as I've slightly changed my setups over the years. The throttle body has always stayed put.

Isn't the S2000/H23 bluetop/ITR throttle body 68mm? Use one of those. Just use an integra throttle rotor.

Installed skunk2 alpha series 66mm throttle body. Looks close enough to stock.
My my my how better the engine breathes. It feels like half the weight of flywheel has been shaved off.
Also the idle is sorted out now. (Could have been off a bit before)
The engine and manifold were clearly suffering for some air
