at no point did i say that my car came from japan...."JDM" is a name given to a certain style that is set to mimic japanese domestic marketed vehicles aka JDM, and I dont know what the deal is cause really how many people are gonna ship themselves a car from japan and pay all those fees just so they can say im JDM yo...and since you were listing the JDM mods, dont forget the thin side moldings, the front and rear badges and the stanley front bumper lights.

"JDM Rice" is a name given to a certain style that is set to mimic japanese domestic marketed vehicles, but proponents of this style only buy the utterly useless parts from Japan like badges, mouldings, and lights, but purchase cheap parts like lips and wheels from the Phillipines and Taiwan for the rest of their vehicle. "JDM Ricers" are the pople most likely to hype the minor changes made to their cars to disassociate themselves with the former trendy style of "Rice" and to conform to the new trendy style they preach about so much, "JDM."

and jdm is technically NOT a ''style''. its refered to parts ONLY offered on their market and a part that would have to be imported into the US....Like your headlights, bumper lenses, moldings and sidemarkers (assuming they came off a teg from jpn)...BUT your lip is no where near "jdm". Clean car for the most part none the less. Just not a fan of the type r style lip on 90-91 bumpers, nor a fan of the wheels. And i dont know how your emblems are jdm, theyre just honda emblems.

^^^wow really dude...so by all this talking that your doing im expecting you to have an Xsi or something, and if you do than thats great...but unless California is located in Japan, or you imported one... get off my thread. Btw the only things that distiguish a JDM DA from a USDM DA are the "utterly useless parts from Japan like badges, mouldings, and lights"...unless like I said you have a OB0 B16 engine, and right hand drive. Or if you want to get really technical, that JDM digital temperature unit or power folding mirrors.

Yeah thats what I thought, only the headlights and tails have changed with addition to a CF hood. Its clean as all hell though, and the kit isnt all that bad either. Just get some clean 16's and you will be set

HAHAHAHAHA, no need to get defensive. When did I ever say that my car was JDM, "JDM", or went through a "JDM transformation"??? My car is USDM. No matter how many parts I get for it that came from Japan, it is still USDM.
You don't need to tell me what distinguishes a JDM DA from a USDM one. Look at my SN if you're in doubt. And trust me, the difference is alot more than just badges, moldings, and lights.
FYI: There were DA's that had OBD1 B16A engines in them, not just OBD0.
