looks nice but nothing different to the 90% of the cars on Ozhonda unfortunately. Everyone has either spoon SW88/CRkai/CE28N/TE37 replicas in black or gold.

u need chrome!!! haha

Not a big fan on the amber corners, they only suit the eg hatches and not the efs.

efs look better with clear indicators imo. lowering would be nice ;)

other than that, nice car. i am envious.

Looks nice but are they real sw388's? spokes look abit too thick compared to regamaster evo's.

Nice car regardless :P

Yeh I think he is referring to the "Spoom" replicas that where for sale recently.

THe thing I wonder with these replicas is their structural integrity. Apparently these "Spoom" wheels only weight in the 5-6kg range which is pretty light and is commonplace only in the more expensive wheels. So it makes you wonder how these replica wheels manage to stay light without relying on expensive manufacturing techniques like forging etc? DO they sacrifice the strength of the wheel?

I presume they ar enot ADR approved.

Sorry to go off topic, the car looks great, I've always like EF's and it would look even better if it was lowered a few inches.

What's with the USDM amber corners on a JDM car? :( You need the VTEC stickers on the doors BTW ;)

Ambers came out as stock in the US 4G EDs. JDM ricer companies buy them up to stick on their EFs. Guess where the aftermarket companies got them from?

Strangely enough, the US market can't get enough of JDM EF/Euro EE/non-USDM ED clear corners.

BTW - is your car an EF3 (under your avatar) or an EF9 (your nick)?
