Definitely! It sounds really good, and it's loud enough so you hear it, but quiet enough so it doesn't get much attention.
I agree, just smoking the side markers looks a lot better. If you want, I might be able to cut you a set!

Car Shtuff:
Nothing new yet til next week, but I got my nifty fifty today!

nifty fifty = 50mm lens for my camera haha. i shoot with a canon 30d w/ a 50mm f/1.8 (all the pics on this page).
the sticker is in tagalog and says "sarap buhay", which means "the good life" in english

yup, they mounted just fine. i'm on t1r s-coils (which, even though don't claim to drop very low, i stand by the fact that they're probably the lowest springs made) so i rub on the front fender liner on hard dips. i'm planning on switching to 195/50's when the stock tires are dead, so i'll probably need to roll fenders then. the only thing about reusing the stock tires on a 7 inch wide rim is it makes the car tend to wander a bit more than it does stock. my set is gunmetal, which is really dark. steel grey is more of the dark grey-ish. i do like the finish on these though, they're bronze in certain lighting

good luck man, just be patient and steady cutting the vinyl. it's really easy to do if you're steady. as far as the rims go- i can't really say. vexmotorsports was going to cut me a deal for $630 with blox lug nuts, but long story short i ended up ordering svn's from aspec_wheels on ebay but the set was damaged so they cut me a deal on the boosts.

regarding the interest in the vinyl- i'll make a separate thread once i get it done, but if i can't get the template right i'll sell vinyl pieces that you just install then cut to shape (what i did and what im assuming lowkeymods is going to do as well).

anyways, i installed my oem door visors today honda makes the instructions way more complicated than they need to be.







^ lol beefy ass stock tires



takes away a lot of the mini van look the ge8 has. definitely a lot better than the cheap stick on set i had before; gotta love oem quality!
i'll try to get a proper shoot in order when school isn't so hectic. i was gonna use the location in the first pic but it was super busy and i went to early so the sun was right on the car.

^ visors were $70 shipped from bernadiparts.com. pretty much any online store is going to be the same price, i did some shopping and all of them offer the visors at the same price; just depended on shipping charges for me.
