I wonder though... how many "e-thugs" will come into this thread just to try and bash because you hurt their feelings on the interwebz at one point or another haha.

^^^ Exactly what I was thinking.

Very similar to CTR headlights but without the gunmetal hue. They don't have reflectors like US headlights and do have city lights. Can't wait to install them.

Stand by for more updates.

It's the color off a 99 NSX. Use paintscratch.com to get the paint code.

Are those supposed to fit behind 15's? I couldn't even get TypeR calipers behind Enkei J-Speed's.

They fit behind 15x7 +35 ce28s. I will run them behind my 16" Mf8s. They fit with no spacers.

Thanks, me too. Never see it in other cars very often. In stock form it's a sad motor. High compression pistons, cams and tuning and it's pretty fun.

Here's another pic of the d2 BBK.
