    I like!

    Its hard to tell in the pics, is it the same color of bare metal as the edge of the rims? Or is it white or something? If both bare metal color, super thumbs up

    Nicely done. Very good idea. If I ever bought aftermarket rims, I would have done the same thing.

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Wow, that's absolutely amazing-that car does not look like it's 20 years old!

    Looks really clean. Did you look into JDM center caps, or just the usdm?

    thanks for the input... i didn't look into JDM variety, it didn't even occur to me that there might be more options if i explored them...

    yes leia, they have aluminum finish to them so they match the lip.

    for those curious, they're 2.5" centercaps whose inner ring diameter is 2 1/6".

    i was thinking of getting some newer style center caps for my 2 sets of 13's. but i dont know which ones to get that will fit nicely and be the correct size. here's a pic of why i want different ones. i hope you can see how much these stick out. see, the snow gathered on top of it! oh yeah, i think thats really good. looks nice with the honda caps.


    Keep it HONDA. Or at least Asian.™

    nice centercaps. I can see that the centercaps dont fit flush but it should be snugg if the way you described how to make them fit. I was just getting used to the non centercaps and you go buy caps! bastard.

    honda-tech has a link to all makes of honda OEM center camps (usdm i think only) ... you could use that to find something that might fit your 13s. jump to their forum and search for it, should be easy to find.

    yeah they don't sit perfectly flush ... but then again they're really close to being perfect fits. i'm too lazy to finish up the modification to make em fit just right -- good enough damn you!!
