i get the flare thing part...but i dun get why he or she put the type r badge infront of the gear stick....maybe check that see if there is a proper number on it like 95-xxxx or 96-xxxx.....
but then it could still be fake..so yeah..check the vin....or u if u know any mechanic with plenty of knowledge on dc2r to have a look at it...coz they can then see if there are any accident including rewelding....and one thing is.." this mite be really silly" but jdm have a shorter cat even stock....comparing to audm....check the boot see if it has a silver bar along the boot at the back coz only type r would have it..so if it have one..mostlike it is a type r then....
it mite have a jdm cluster...but it takes under 3 mins to change basically everything internal can be changed and no airbag on the passenger side..maybe it is jdm....but if it had an accident and to a point needs to do a conversion like that..i don't think its worth it coz it means they would have to cut and weld the front end again to do the conversion....the seats looks really screwed as well
edit: and i just realised..if its jdm..shouldn't it come with a fog light switch behind the steering wheel on the left hand side under the dash at the little circle thingy there????
