I also have a question about side moldings. Would it be hard to install them on mine???

Does any body have center caps for sale cheap???

Should i keep the side skirts red or paint them black??

Wow, this thread is completely random now .....

For side moulding, it would be easy if you bought the tape-type:

And centercaps, you can get from Honda, or from here:

The rims look nice on that car - my friend has a 'teg LS-T fully built and rims that look exactly the same.

Looks good stationary and in motion (when the spokes are a blur).

Anyways, I'd have to say black or red, red might look good. Same code as the car color is. Anything w/ the same paint as the entirety of the car looks good w/ white rotors (usually).

and paint the calipers black... anything else will look funny.

I think a gold mixed with silver (OEM coating color) would look good on the calipers with that paint job. Unfortunately, I cant tell if that color would work well with white wheels...

I SAY THE CALIPERS SHOULD BE EITHER BLACK OR SILVER.....
THEY WOULD STAND OUT MORE IF THEY WERE SILVER BUT NOT TOO MUCH...
