Thanks!!!

I still improving the suspension/chassis part of the car, hopefully I'll get to the tranny soon cause I really look forward to getting a nice LSD, FW, and FD combo/upgrade soon... but I want some 16" rims for my yoko's, might get a set of Work Emotions

haha, I wish I have the $$ rite now, but too bad

I've got a friend who owns an black EP3 w/ a set of Work emotions, they're nice on his car

I personally like the silver "H" emblems from the Integra very much, the car "feels" much better (like how it should be) w/ those compared with the "A" emblems

I used dental floss to remove the emblems... so take some dental floss (one end w/ one hand and other end w/ other hand) and get the dental floss behind the emblems and work your way through until the whole thing comes off and try to get as close to the metal as you can to get as much "tape" off at this stage... then just try your hardness to rub any remaining "tape" off afterwards...

Here's a pic of my friend's EP3 and my DC5 (before I did the headlights and got the jdm lips, etc)



The bronze Advan's and TE37's would be NICE as well!!!
I also like the Rays Grams Light... too bad they dont come in 16"s

you guys need to wash your cars...they're filthy. I wouldn't take any pics of my car unless it was spotless. Nice car though!

haha, I really do need to wash my car soon, I'll do that after my final exams

Im running a set of JIC FLT-A2s, Js front strut, c-pillar & torque dampener, cusco rear strut bar, 22mm jdm rear sway, 225/50-R16 yokos, so basically all suspension/chassis work so far...

I think the DC5 definitely needs the black housing headlights (compare w/ the pic of me and my friend's car)

Ontario licence plate? where are you located? TO?

nice ride, on the black housing. That would be the very first thing I do to my RSX if I have one.
