Default New SSBP pics of my 98 GS-R

It's been a while since I've posted pics of my teg so here you go. Some people might recognize the other Hondas in the pics.
Hope there are some SSBP fans in this thread..

UPDATE: I'm going to get rid of the WW front lip and replace it with an ITR front lip. Also, the front mesh grill is going to be painted black. I'd like to remove the mesh grill but I don't have the OEM black plastic grill and the bumper might not look right without the OEM grill piece. Does anyone think I should reinstall the front Acura front emblem? Install a Honda front emblem? or keep the front bumper shaved as-is? Thanks

Thanks for the comments. I agree with ya. I have plans to get the ITR front lip and OEM optional side skirts & rears. I like shiny blades too but mine were all scuffed up when I bought the car. That's the only reason I painted them.

How about if I paint the grill black? The plastic piece that usually is in the middle of the bumper opening was taken out years ago.

rims look pretty good, and it doesnt look like every other integra. as for the grill id say take it off completely. and an itr lip would look nicer. just my opinion. nice car though

I agree. Loose the lip. But i would just paint the grille instead of taking it out completely. You said that the plastic was cut out so i would expose all the stuff behind. But other than that, I like it!!

Clean car; painting that grill black would go a long way.

The color is from an S2000. Thunder Grey is darker.

I think this is what I'll end up doing (for now). I will also be getting an ITR lip sometime soon but it will need to be painted before I install it.

Does anyone think I should reinstall the front Acura front emblem? Install a Honda front emblem? or keep the front bumper shaved? Thanks
