It never occurred to me to black out the stupid chrome tips on the Mugen rear. Looks so much better. I like the recent changes, except maybe the front badge because it draws all the attention away from that jealousy-inducing grill lol.

If you ever go Mugen rear you should leave them, they'd look good with the Vienna's.

Update:
-Front Honda emblem removed
-New wheel specs: F / 17x7 +18 R / 17x7 +23
-Lower all around
-Rear fenders rolled (however, not enough. still rubbing in the rears)
-Bent wheel fixed
-Alignment done (-3 camber up front, stock -0.5 in the rear)
-Air filter cleaned
-TPMS malfunction light magically came on, after I fix all the other issues of course.
Lame iPhone pictures:
Debating on what's next, I'm chill with it for now. I just need to sort out the TPMS issue, rear rubbing, and front rubbing over big bumps.

I did it awhile ago, but IIRC it was about $200/$250 or so to have it filled and color matched.

The took the rear garnish to a body shop and had them fill the hole and paint match it, no one makes a replacement garnish without the wiper hole.

[QUOTE=FittedOnEm;1224487]I'm working out details, I'm just being careful on the next step to be sure it doesn't get tacky.
Yeah, I mean you've done so many awesome things with your car. So many original things at that!
Not that you're looking for my advice...but
I think it's almost like the front and rear are different styles. The RPF1's are a cool middle ground, but I would reconcile the VIPish rear with the mixed-up style front if I were you...but then again, you're the one pushing the envelope (in a good way).

I like your car a lot. It's very clean and everything flows nicely, rims look good, nice drop. Keeping your windows clear? I like the clear look and I feel like I don't see it as much.
With your weight savings, how does it drive vs stock?

I haven't had the car stock for awhile now, but from what I could tell it did seem a little quicker off the line with the extra weight shaved off. Other than that I haven't noticed much of a difference

Thank you! I'm planning on leaving it tint less, but the summer heat is making it a little hard to keep with that decision haha.
