JDM...why.
dam, a lot of e-fights going on here.
theirs no such thing as "JDM" for our cars. get over it. u can imitate it all you want but its still not jdm. people prefer different style from others. whatever you say online about show cars or jdm style parts isnt going to change anyones decisions.
JDM...why NOT?

Rep Power: 0 Aight guys, let me offer some insight from a guy who's actually from japan. You can like it or you can hate it, I don't care, just puttin it out there. My civic went from "ricey" and is soon to go more towards JDM, I've also got a dodge challenger that runs mid 11's and a 1100 honda motorcycle, so hear me out. Anyone who talks about rice should go look at the ridiculous show cars in Japan. Any show you go to out there and you will see bigger wings, bigger kits, and bigger exhausts than you will ever see out here. On the other hand, you go out to the track, and you see what we coin as "JDM." A simple, no frills but clean looking car that goes fast. Either way, whatever you like, do it. I give props to the bunch, gotta represent.

its really good if your tryin to get people's attention, you certainly achieve that with the neon colors and all the bling bling... but i have had enough of people revving at me and I already get enough attention from my gf anyways so i didn't need anymore while driving... it came to a point that my white wheels caused haters to bash in my window one day... that was enough to make me mod "JDM style" (not necessarily JDM parts, but JDM styling)
JDM is jus better for street cars IMO... its clean, simple, and pretty much all of the JDM parts are functional in some way... JDM styling attracts attention without attracting TOO much attention, and that is exactly what I want to achieve when modding my ride... I want to attract the attention of those car enthusiasts that appreciate JDM styling... not all those people that can see (and hear) me a block away...

I had my JDM car, an EG boosted hatch, now I want to go show. I love JDM cars, I just don't like it when people bash a nice looking body kit because they think everything should be JDM. And just as a side note, I hate 90% of wings to, except for the OEM and the wing i have, every other wing is pretty much ugly. And no comments on the aluminum wings, rofl.
We were so disguested in redracers wing at the last meet, we made him take it off, and this is what we did with it.
I tried selling it to the ice cream truck but he wouldnt take it
i like the stock/k20 swap look. anyone agree??? no body kit, stock rsx rims, almost stock ride height but smokin fast.
sorry, im excited, it should be done in acouple of weeks, just need rad. fan now then install.

Ours= not so JDM....civic kits...not so JDM...wings...not so JDM...
There's a difference in there kits compared to ours....kinda like VOLKS compared to MOTEGI'S.

Dude, you'll see all kinds of cars with this stuff, everything from hatches to RV's. I once saw a supra with tailpipes that went 6 feet in the air, it was hilarious. And technically, all these cars in Japan are "JDM" to use the phrase.
