I like those kinds of preludes. I would like to see something different than painting the black just to "stand out" Def could use some other wheels.

Paint em Gloss black and while you're doing that paint the mirrors too, it'd look especially HOT if you were to paint the lower rear bumper,sideskirts, and front lip the body color!!!

Edit that statement since that is the most stupidest thing ANYONE will EVER say on Honda-Tech.

Dont paint them, youll just ruin them. Leave them as is bro, if you paint them, they will look like ****, the paint will start chipping etc.


I like your car though! Looks pretty clean so far, but you got a long way to go! Anything under the hood?

yeah i might paint the lip. the other choice would be to wrap the trunk, hood and lip in a crazy vinyl. not sure though

yeah i know that once u paint a wheel its done for in terms of going back to the way they were.

and nothing under the hood. motor only has 40,000 miles on it. h22's have horrible responses to bolt ons unless they are are expensive. and for the money the HP you get isnt worth it
