6th Gen Milano Red coupes = :thumbup:

However...the following is just my opinion:

gunmetal rims = :thumbup:
all red taillights = :down:
Si badge on a non-Si = :down:
DOHC VTEC sticker on a non DOHC car = :down:
muffler = :down:

Even if you do put a B16 in there I still wouldn't put the Si badge or DOHC VTEC sticker on since there weren't any USDM Si's in 1998. Definitely do paint the sideskirts. It's amazing how much better they make the car look when they're body color. Get a decent suspension package, a nice front lip and it'll be a nice car.

 

The wheels look great, but I agree with LOWERING IT ASAP, and removing Si/VTEC decals. But overall its nice.

 

*shrug* do what you like, atleast then you probably won't have a jdm HAN clone car.


Now, to go install my JDM white letter digital clock.. :P

 

I know I'm risking being called a ricer. I do not pretend I have an Si, or I would not have ex in my sig or on my AIM profile. Why didnt honda make a red EX emblem? The si looks nicer. Also, the Dohc Vtec decal looks good against the red, and once again, it was installed by the dealer when bought new. I will lower it, but it is already sitting pretty low, when on a flat surface.

But I do not think a small decal makes my car look bad. Exhaust gets a thumbs down? How come? If you are assuming it makes a high pitched wine, then you are incorrect, it has a low, deep growl. Very quiet, I did not want a loud one. You can't tell its on untill you get on it.

Thanks for the opinions though, honestly appreciated.

 

theres a sticky diy on how to paint the side skirts. i've read through it and its a pretty decent how to. if its not there. there is literally a how to on painting on EVERY car forum out there lol. search is your friend

keep up the good work, keep it clean

 

Well, quite honestly, we are not judging your exhaust note by the pictures we are given, but rather what the exhaust looks like itself.

IMO, the HAN community as a whole has a bad choice for exhaust...as I do not like what they like... but I do not like yours either... Just something about the pattern that the outlet was designed in, I do not like it very much.


As for the emblems... the only reason people are hating them is because you do not own an Si, regardless if they look good or not, it is not an Si. You could have thought the Porsche emblem is good looking on the car... but regardless it is the wrong badge for the wrong car.. However, I HAVE seen Si emblems that are painted Red... and it looks good.

please don't get ebay coilovers...especially on stock shocks. Get some eibach pro kits or H&R sports and some KYB GR2s or something. In fact ive got some brand new gr2s that need a home (email: hunter9306@adelphia.net). Trust me you will think the ebay coilovers are nice for a couple days and then realize you just wasted money on crap. Do it right the first time and you'll be happy (i went with 2.5" lowering springs on stock shocks before my progress/AGX setup and the first setup sucked)

 

yeah, I would only lower it 1-1.25 inches. I don't like that slammed look. Just wanna close the wheel gap.

lol thanks alpha, porsche badges do look sexy, I think I might pick some up, lol. Nah but thats a different thing, porsche is not something made by honda, I guess its like mustang GT when its not, yada yada...anyway I'm keepin em on and I'm the only one that looks at my car everyday, and if it makes me smile when i walk away from my car when i park, then this is what I live for.

 

That's true, and im glad your keeping them if you like them, however don't think that your going to please the entire online community, even if your car was perfect, and had those badges... not everyone would be pleased. Take HAN's opinion like a grain of salt

Personally, I think the CTR bages are uber sexy, but would I ever be caught dead sporting one in America? No

 

I have KYB AGX shocks with Eibach springs, rides like a dreammmmmmm
