Yeah I'm in the black on black '05 club as well. But I wish I wasn't, it's almost impossible to keep the car clean down here in Miami with all the humidity. But i still love my RSX.

make sure you watch for rust in the sunroof. I have a 2002 RSX S and have had the sunroof replaced and will have to have the 2nd one replaced because of rust that developes in the sunroof. You'll need to look under the black rubber seal that goes around the sunroof. In front of where the water drains from the glass is where it is worst. I hope Acura is going to do something about this other than keep replacing the sunroof with the same defective part. I have pics if anyone wants to see what I'm talking about. Most people won't see it till it's too late since you have to be looking under the rubber seal and where the water drain down from the glass roof.

ITR rims are same 02-05+ so itll be cheaper for you to buy them used. Gunmetal are way harder to find than CW however .

Btw congrats on the new toy. My opinon on the facelift however differs

I saw some bronze rims on the 05 black/black integra. I guess it was for the Type-s integra but it was clean. Those are the ones im going to try to purchase once i find someone who can get them. Good luck with your facelift.

I love black on black cars. In fact, I miss my black on black GTI. There's a special place in my heart for them. However, I will never own another one. They are incredible looking cars when clean, but when they're dirty? Fuggeddaboudit. There's nothing uglier on the road than a filthy black car.

Congratulation on your new toy. I would love to have an '05 Type-S.
