That might be a problem

GD whats up with all the haters? Just because they have no painting skills or creativity. I'd do the same thing if my VC went to ****. The backside has a chip from when a drop of brake fluid got on it by accident .

Dunno about being on a white car, but would look good on the teal color from 94-97 integras.

I think it looks pretty good as long as the finish stays nice and the paint doesnt chip
