Show us a picture of your speedo

White te37's would be more of the JDM look than the advanti stalkers?

All it's missing for the JDM look is a big T-wing and bunch of flashing LEDs with big eye blinding neons under the car. :wink:

Nar it's not what people call "JDM" in my eyes. Advanti rims go a long way to it not being.

Instead of calling it JDM, call it "Jap style" or "Jap look" as really it's a bit more accurate.... however it doesn't look like that either.

However it is JDM, as the car was made and sold new in Japan's domestic market, so yeah, no arguments there, is there.

it needs smaller wheels, or a rare jap wheel, wound down suspension, carbon lip, and annodised suspension goodies, check out hondatech for... "the look"
When in doubt, down and out.
