something different. I have always loved te's but never wanted to do them cause everyone had them in basic colors. found someone selling a set and chopped them on my car at several different angles and liked them so I bought them.

ok, lets backup here for a second.
my monitor is fine, its a very high end sony. and there is little to no difference.
i have a very good eye for detail and i can see the seats are different and the shift panel was changed from silver to black, but the rest is hardly noticable.

is it worth ripping apart the entire interior of a new car and swapping with another exact same set? is it worth loostening all the bolts that honda installed from the factory to get a shade darker?

when your car squeeks and rattles like a crx from the 90s in two years dont complain because you will be the cause of this.

the reason you did this was so ht would approve of it, and if your stock interior looks the same then its not really worth all the work to convince ht that you are cool for being so jdm.

here is a side by side

it's hard to tell in that pic because it's a little dark (at least on my monitor), but it use to be a very light gray interior and now it's a full black interior. the center armrest is different, along with the door panels, whole front dash, and carpet.

The original interior was gray. Grey lower dash, gray door panels, gray carpet, gray everything except top of the dash. Now it is all black

But here are the pics reedited so you can see better.

pictures don't do those wheels any justice at all. flows pretty well when you see it in person. i'm sure some of you guys will agree when the car show season starts up again and you see jason's car in person.
