im confused, what makes an accord a jdm, a mugen, or a spoon? wuts the difference? im looking into gettin sum decals for my car and i want to get the ones suitable for my car. check out my pics and let me kno which one would be best for it?

 

Japanese Parts
Mugen Parts
Spoon Parts

? If you don't know what they mean or are applicable too I wouldn't buy those knock off stickers.

 

WOW

 

The parts that are in it is what makes the car JDM. Like, the SiR headlights and clearance lights (smoked).

From what I know, Mugen and Spoon are aftermarket parts made from Japan, made for HONDA Cars.

 

if you buy the parts, they come with decals. no parts, no decals.

 

 

Lets just say if you are not sure what makes a car JDM then your car probably doesn't fit the bill for a JDM sticker. No matter how may JDM parts you put on a USDM car. It's still not JDM! The only way a car can be JDM is if it was built for the Japanese Domestic Market.

If you own a car that was built in the USA none of the brands you have refered to belong on your car unless you bought Mugen, Spoon or Jun parts. Putting any of the above mentioned stickers on your car without the parts would be what is refered to as being a posser or ricer.

 

+1

 

JDM Wagons were built in the US

And the SIR motors were built in Maryland I believe (know it's the US somewhere East Coast)

Can I put a JDM sticker on now?

 

yes it may have been biult in teh US But it was built for and sold in the Japanese Domestic Market not teh US. You would have a hard time finding them here in NA. So Unless you imported it form Japan....... No sticker for you

 

The worst feeling ever would be getting called out for something that isn't there. I'd probably steer clear of the stickers but to each their own.

 

thats what i dont want to do, be refered as a ricer...thats why i posted this up b4 buying any decal. i guess all the parts on my cd5 arent jdm so im just sticking to a plan honda decal.

 

I perused through your garage and took a gander at your Accord.....



Did you just buy the car? Now I'm not gonna be the one to do it, but if you haven't been called a "Ricer" yet....... don't get your feelings hurt WHEN, not if, WHEN you do.

But hey, some folks still dig those ballin' a$$ wheels, fiberglass body kit, and "Altezza" Style tails

 

yeah i got the car like that like 6 months ago...im more into looks for shows than racing it...eventhough it does have sum performance parts to help it out a lil...i just wanted to put sum more decals to it, but i guess ill just stay with a plain honda or accord decal, since it doest fit in to any jdm field.

 

do not put decals for things you do not have...
I have 2 decals on my car, AEM and brembo, seeing as I actually own products from both companies..

try your best not to be one of those fools who represent things they don't have (and put fake gagues on the pillar)....

 

OMG!!!!!!

why dont you just get a sticker that says "mad jdm YO!!!"...

you want your car to be jdm and add stickers to "prove" it....

here's what you do...

sell it
save up about 7 - 8k more
go to righthanddrivejapan.com
and purchase and actual RHD CE1 wagon that was shipped from japan and has all of the JDM goodness you could ever want... btw...

YOU FAIL

 

you're a good man for that, besides jdm isn't all it's worked up to be.

 

Marysville, Ohio I believe

 

That's it!

I knew "Mary" was in the name

 

I have two on my car, Acurazine and Dynamat.

i agree, dont rep what you dont own.

 

Here are some of the stickers that I have collected from purchases I have made for my current build. None of witch are going to end up on my car. Reason being that none of these companies has given me any money to advertise. Why should I advertise for them for free?

I'll give my props here online and that's it.

Findanza
Moates.net
Carrillo
Wiseco
AEM
Russel
Summit
Jegs
KazenSpeed
Darton
KYB
Innovate
Race Engineering
Accel
Car fashion by Lester
Reactive Racing

There are more but I can't think of them right now....or they never gave me a sticker so they won't get mentioned at all.

 

No what you're doing is advertising to thieves. One of the reasons I too have a pile of stickers at my house from my builds.

 

^^ mmhmm :nod:

i think the only other sticker id put on my car is one about my alarm system.. but even that could be viewed as negative as it then alerts the thief to what kind of system your running.

 

IMO, stickers/decals are teh gh3y
