Default Just got my car back...Here's some pics of my VSM coupe.

Well, I just got my car back from the shop after 1 month. (New bumper cover, radiator support, hoses, and radiator... https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=713000)So today I washed it and installed my folding mirrors (debating on whether to paint them VSM or not-opinions welcome), 6.5in door speakers, fogs, and front lip. No more CF hood. Stil need to install Axxis Ultimate brake pads and put the Si Wheels on when I get them. These are also my first shots of my car with my new digi cam I got for Christmas (Sony DSC-P72). Here they are:

thanks guys. I'm thinking I should paint the mirrors also. The fogs are 96-98 OEM fogs. Some people do paint them yellow to see better in the fog/rain.

It's nice to see everything painted on the front end. But IMO the 99-00 front end looks better with the Mugen lip. The Mugen replica lip on the 96-98 front end doesn't flow well with the front bumper. On a 96-98 front end I think the CTR front lip looks better due to the lack of vents in the bumper itself.

The fit doesn't look that great either.
