Looks grand, but the part I don't under stand is removing those BEAUTIFUL wheels and installing the 18" Rotas?

To each his own

Lucky bastard, Its also my favorite color...Silver

looks good, especially the color

i think if you lowered it on the stock rims it would look alot better, but it is your car.

Very tight car vertskate! How's the JDM movement in the UK? Any hardcore Mugen or Spoon type tuners on the roads? You guys not only get the cool Hondas but some pretty good racing too with the BTC type events.

Thanks fot the comments guys. There is a lot of JDM followings in th UK...we can get just about any part we want over here with some good suppliers, but as always we tend to pay over the odds for it!

I also agree about the sentiment on the Rotas. If you're gonna remove the OEM wheels, at least replace them with something better.
