If anyone can get this let me know I would send you money so you can get me the trim.

I think ur car is very nicely done, just a few more things to complete the exterior conversion. Try calling Morris at Boom Plus Toys in Canada. He can get euroR parts including the black door trims. Planning on dropping in a K20A?

it's probably a lot cheaper to powdercoat them black. now if I only knew how to undo them.... I want to get them black as well

hmm.. it's also interesting how euro-R uses black door trims, but chrome door handles.

I know for a fact that the factory Type-R's (Integra and Civic) have suspension better than most aftermarket ones because it matches the car really well. I haven't been in a Euro-R or a Euro with Tien flex's, but I wouldn't dissmiss the factory Euro-R suspension with your Tien's just like that.

At least it's got less chrome down the sides... I think the chrome window surround is an overkill although I feel that Honda is trying to go slightly retro with the car

Can someone provide a pic of a real Euro-R for comparison?

I think Honda went with black on the Euro-R to stay with the "sporty" theme, vs every other Accord model which some may consider to be more luxurious, therefore adding chrome.
