Arrgghh..Did anyone take notice of Bobafett's rims!? That's the first time I have seen them clean on his car.
PICS PICS PICs chris!!!!!!!!!!
Rim offsets would be in a range from the 30mm's to 50mm's.Originally posted by crwa
I think the off set on the rims is 4x100, there just a standard sixe, nothing special. They really are 18" even thoug they don't look it. They don't rub or scuff or anything, and no the finders arn't modified.
Do you happen to know what model of TSW rim they are?
I like that car...Its really clean looking ....And the offset is in mm....4x100 is the lugs...
Nice car. You got anymore pics of the lip? If its a universal lip that they cut down then why did you pay $400 for it? That seems a lttile expense since I see Carbon Fiber lips on Ebay for like $200. Let me know.
The rims are called Trophys. And the lip was so expensive because its real carbon fiber plus I had to pay the shop to cut and attach it to the bumper plus I had to buy the stabolizers which hold it and allow it to be adjusted up or down for down force.

Nope. 215/35- 18''. And ride it just the same as any other low profile tire. The suspension is what sucks it so stiff so an little bump is felt. And even with these large tires my car will still probably run 16's in the quarter, even though its an auto. its still damn quick

Do you have any pics from the side with the lip on?
the lip doesn' wrap around the sides and i think that makes it look a little wierd from the sides. it looks great from the front, i just noticed that you really can see it in the side pics, it's just sort of sticks out wierd. it would look better if it wrapped around like most lips, but i still like it. i wouldn't put one on my car, but i like it.

very nice looking car. Once again the a nice looking 4 door.
whoa, i was just wondering, does that fake carbon fiber automatic shift knob make it shift any faster due to it being so lightweight..i would think some1 who can afford brand enw TSW 18's you could afford a real carrbon fiber lip, but instead i realized youve spent all your money on ricnig that shit out, with that aweosme chrome fire extinguisher and fake ass japanese license plate, i may not have a damn car, but any1 can crush that shit
oh and what the hell is with that one race seat look bullshit? every1 you see where you live has it liek that? do you live in a trailer park? shell out the extra cash and get the toher seat dumbass

Hey carless.. you know I could just get all mad, but you have your opinion and you know what thats fine, when you get a car, come to my trailer park race me and after that you can do my dog, since us trailer trash just do that. You know what I like my car and the lip is real carbon fiber, the shift knob isn't cause they don't make real carbon fiber shifters. But when they do I'll get one just for you for you, cause I don't dis on people like you, I'm better then that. Oh the plate is real it came off a wrecked accord form Japan, you know that island where rice comes from. Oh maybe I'll send you the money I saved from my fake carbon fiber so you can go to school and learn how to spell.
Don't post on my car again!!!

expressing a negative opinion is fine, but disrespecting another member's tastes and hard work is unacceptable on this board. keep it up and you'll be looking for a new board that perhaps will be more accomodating to flaming other members.Originally posted by carlessNcareless

yo man your car is awesome, i like it for pure originality, keep doing your thing and it's good to see that your bigger than that, what's up with that guy anyway? not trying to knock him either but u really can't say anything if u don't have a car, that was just plain childish altogether
"Accord"........we are one........
i respect that you don't want to retaliate, but you did. you contradicted yourself and you did "dis" him. your reply was almost as childish as his.Originally posted by crwa

I have to totally give you props for the work done to your car man. I only don't like one thing though, the interior was hypnotising me dude. All that carbon fiber stuff was making me dizzy. I know what you mean by it's better than black b/c I'm trying to figure out what to do with my interior. And I would like to know what's wrong with one racing seat? Would it be better to spend over $1000 on 4 seats for the car? I would only put one or two in my car like you did. I didn't see the JDM plates but I'll look again. I would like to know what that breather filter is doing by the battery. Does it serve a purpose? I have an extra that's why i'm askingWhere did you buy that lip, that looks so tight. Nice looking car you got there, keep it up dude.
HEY DUDE........SWEET CAR!! LOVE THE COLOR AND RIMS......BUT only negative thought about it is its AUTO...im curious...why'd you do it to an auto? and HOW MUCH YOU SELLIN THAT FOR..IM JW...NICE CAR THOUGH MAN KEEP IT UP
Dude, It's quick for an auto. I can beat and keep up with some of the 5 speed around here, and they have some add ons, no there not just 5 speed Geos either. I'm tryin to get $4800 out of it right now. I know that sounds high, but it has alot of money in it, at least that price right now. And I did it to an auto becauses you can make autos fast and I plan to convert it to a 5 speed later if i keep it. I'm thinkin about doin a swap with an H22 or an F23 sohc vtec, if i do the F motor I'm gonna do a custom turbo and run a dry nitrious set up on it, then it will be really fast, but the f23 would be on an auto trans, the H would be on a 5 speed, and they are really fast, I'd get the jdm version which has 200 hp stock, it would then be fully built and I'd do a stage 2 clutch and run nos. I have a few shops lookin into it right now, the f23 set up would run about $4000. I'm also probably gonna add an lcd screen and a vcr, so when I do get beat I can just watch a movie afterward

The only trouble with auto is the lack of a solid 1st gear like there is a 2nd gear. Other wise manually shifting the auto from second to third to fourth makes a big difference. Also with a little work I've managed to dump the TV cable and replaced it with a more driver friendly High / Low lever which basicly switches the car from an early shifting econo box to a high reving circuit beast.
... With other modifications like 2 B&M trans coolers and Trick Shift ATF.
As for there only being one Racing seat. Unless you're doing rally or something that requires a co-driver... I wouldn't see the need for a second seat. So I'm cool with that... plus I love the black look and that its non-reclinable. Have you thought about routing the seat belt on the door side thru the slots on that side of the seat? Cause I'm sure if you unbolt it you could pass one side of the belt thru... that should keep you held in the seat fairly tight.
(I think its called an adjustable CF Front spoiler, not a lip or air dam... just letting you know.)
I wish the front spoiler was a little lower, like adding a 2" lip between the stock bumper and the front spoiler... but other wise I like it.
Oh I like your shift knob as well cause I had a wooden one simmilar to that but I ended up cutting my shifter a few inches shorter and adding a straight top button style auto shift knob instead.

Yo, I just wanted to say that I'm digg'n your ride man......... That carbon fiber is a nice touch but if you're going to do it then you have to go all out......... Like save up for the CF hood and try and do the interior in black with CF inserts here and there......... The paint and rims are nice so just think about it and you'll see what I'm talking about.......

just plain pimp:pimp:
i know this is a lil late. but the thing with that back seats seam spliting is not too good. i had tried to sew mine back and it started to tear up more. i just got a new fold down part of the seat.
Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™
