mirrors for sure

 

knock offs are cheaper and look the same. you'll lose JDM bling though *gasp* and you'd still have money for the brace.

If you HAVE to pick one, then the brace.

 

option 1.

 

i would rather waste my money on the mirrors for now and try and find a carbing three point instead of the password one.

 

option 2. You already have functioning mirrors... why not add something your car doesn't have?

i'm not a big fan of the password bar's, i had a carbing on my hatch before and loved it. wish i would have kept it instead to trading it, but oh well...and who know's he may have found a set of spoon mirrors for a deal. thus in reality he's the one that must make the final choice not you or i.

Thats like saying, why get new wheels, your stock wheels work fine...

I'd get the mirrors. I just bought some CF knock offs the other day, can't wait till they get here. I think the stock EG mirrors look shitty. They'd really complement your car too...

Plus i've heard mixed things about passwords bars...

your not the only one.....i bent my friends.

 

I heard their rear tower bars are absolutely terrible... You can flex them with your hands...

I don't like Password regardless. Weaksauce

 

You are comparing wheels to mirrors? Really?

Wheels, yes, weight and durability and looks too.

But Mirrors, what do you lose? A couple of ounces, its mainly looks. I agree with you 100% that the spoon mirros LOOK better than stock, but why waste the money on mirrors, if he could spend it in an area that has not been addressed yet.

Again, we are in the dark if his car is for track, street, show etc.

EDIT: I agree with the password strut, i've heard not so good things about them.

I'm willing to venture out and say about 90% of people buy wheels because of the way they look on their car, not because of the weight and less rotational mass...

I'm just pointing out the fact that exterior/look of a car is just as important as, sometimes more so, than performance gains, to some people. Even more so when it comes to a strut bar that flexes and doesn't, from what i'm told, provide any real gains.

As a person that thinks the look of a car is a big deal, i'd get the mirrors and get a better strut bar later.

 

Touche my friend.

To each their own.

Terrifying. I guess I'll be looking elsewhere for a three point strut bar

I feel the exact same way, i would never build a car that didnt look good, and i would never build one that didnt perform well. Looks to me are just as important as performance.

On the topic of strut bars, 80% of people that buy them buy them for looks, or buy them to 'make their car handle better' and wouldnt know the difference one way or the other.

To notice any kind of change in chassis rigidity you A. need decent tires, something like RS2's Azenis or grippier and B. need to be very in tune with your car and know how it acts at the ragged edge (mid to high speed), when chassis rigidity really plays a factor in handling.

My oem gsr strut bar is fine for me. Its lighter than anything aftermarket, just as sturdy, and Honda saw it fit enough to put on the CTR

i agree with this statement....my car feels just tha same as before with out them now. If anything i would say get some sway bars if you dont allready. that is where i noticed the biggest difference in my car.

Lets go with option 3. TURBO.

Yeah because mirrors and turbo kits are roughly the same price.......

Aaron I say plastic mirrors and get the mirror portion painted white.

 

I guess Im the only person that likes their stock mirrors and stock wheels. I know alot of people are going to disagree with what I say but fu_k it. Too many people add so many modifications to cars that in a sense cause the vehicle to look its personality and character. And if you dont think a car/your car has a personality then it is you who I am taking shots at. And I am not saying this behind some mirrors and wheels but by alot of unnecessary modifications that dont apply to the applications you intend to use or the parts are made for. To each his own, just enjoy your ****.
