jdm for 7thgen equals retarded being that companies like spoon mugen j's racing doesnt make crap for our cars and also being that you cant get real jdm parts becuase our cars are nothing special like the type r's. i mean i love jdm cars dont get me wrong but saying your gonna make a 7thgen a true jdm car is not going to happen.
Last time I had this much fun some furniture got broken!

Rep Power: 245 this jdm arguement is a load of crap. let people do what they like, if their ride looks naff , just point and laugh. i find that usually goes down like a sack of crap when they're sat with their shades on and their hardcore dance music bellowing out.

Rep Power: 361 My entire point is NOT to tell people to stop being "JDM" but for every fvcking import owner to STOP using the term incorrectly.
JDM IS NOT blacked out headlights and black wheels with a polished lip, contrary to popular belief!

Rep Power: 337 i really don't think APC and megan are knockoff JDM stuff. i mean APC is american. megan is taiwan. and i like the megan products, i mean 32 way adjustable full coilovers are nothing to complain about. its about personal preference, your right. i don't think this has anything to do with companies, its more to do with peoples perception of what JDM really means, it means the origin of the STYLE or PART came from japan. so you could have a JDM STYLE car but unless its literally parted piece by piece from japan, its not really at all.
i do respect those cars nowadays that are built specifically to mirror the japanese version of the same car. now that takes time and patience to piece together a whole japanese interior/exterior.

Rep Power: 339 ^^ I think ya got it man haha. I agree APC is not always mimicing Jap parts, they even copy domestic market stuff.... but most of their stuff is garbage. Rota on the other hand has a knockoff of MANY Jap company wheels, Mugen, Spoon, Volk, Work just to name a few.
