They probably think your mad , it doesn't bother me on my car as the paints 13 years old anyway so it comes of when I get round to washing it If I brand new paint though I would be mega pissed off if bird crap burnt a mark into the paint

love the whole car although i wouldnt have gone for white alloys myself i would have chose black to compliment the bonnet, also you seem to have sped thousands on this car but it still sits very high? is it even lowered?

Function over form mate.. spraying on top of carbon = more weight

Hate the standard OEM wheels in black.. it hides them, they are nice alloys that need to 'stick out'... yep spent a total of £4k on it so far (I was also gonna get it supercharged but thats another £3k).... Spoon springs / Spoon exhaust bung / Honda OEM wind deflectors are on order pending in Japan (so much for overnight parts on Harry's tab )

The bay is the only thing that hasn't been done (bar the chassis)... I may look into getting the top mounts and slam panel sprayed though

No - it's a 30th Anni resprayed in Honda Champ White... the differences: JDM's are import and have a LSD and engine is 212bhp instead of 197bhp... they also used to be insurance group 20 so it wasn't worth it when I bought the car 2 years ago!
