today i saw the biggest rice type r in the world.
one horrible bodykit, stickers and graphics all over it, double deck aluminum wing, and some wacked out tail lights!!!!

all this to a champ white r!

im all for the look of a jdm conversion.

but i never saw a bodykit that looked good on an r. have you?

not to say all body kits are bad looking but i never saw a good onre for a r.
i like acuras optional body kit better.

well just want to here some peoples opionions on bodykits for the r

i would rather have my car go faster but some people love show.

i would love to check out some foriegn bodykits for the r if anyone has a link.

The Wings West kit looks nice but I would only go with the OEM R kit or better yet, the GSR OEM sideskirts and rear valence.

Body kits help set individuality.. i have a R that has a body kit... no big deal..looks better then stock..and it's more appeal to me. The JDM look is good but been seeing it around to often. To each his own i guess, but there are alot of ppl that dont do it right...
one luv

-99 ITR
Baby Blue Metalic Pearl
Bombex Front
Black Widow Rear (custom dual exhaust for my ITR)
Pointless retarded money wasting mod but will benfiit meh in long run, when i get my TUrbo in!
Carbon FIber M3 Signal Mirros
BLitz Sides
Fake Air Dam On Roof
Predator series one Carbon Fiber Hood
Bomex Areo Dipped Side Fenders

how is it that you have a 99 R? Did you do a "conversion"?

he probably has a canadian r.
oh i didt say all bodykits are wack but i really havent seen a nice one for the type r yet.

i have a bodykit on my 00 civic si:

blitz front
buddy club sides
buddy club rear

as far as wings go i love the stock r wing but to everyone his own like you said. i just wanteed to get a couple of links to boodykits on the r just in case i decide to go that route or just leave the r in stock trim. i also been deciding about a possible jdm front end conversion along with a jdm bodykit.

I like mugen body kit(not to fond of the wing though). It is just pricey, expecially when having to do the conversion.
