I went to the Salon de l'auto today... I saw a normal RSX. If the seats you are looking for are like that... go for it!!! wow!

I didn't test them but the look is like the one in leather, so I guess the support is the same.

Probably depends on the model year .. they are more likely the redesigned 05+ you saw (duh with the new model year). It is a little more difficult finding those for sale still (from what I know) - in any event RSX seats > stockers

So do you have a OEM driver seat with a armrest that will take dust in your garage???

I don't have armrest on my seat... 2004 SE did not come with central console armrest.... Damn I miss the armrest of my Dodge caravan!!!

Hey guys I need your input... since I won't have money to change my wheels this year (again... ) I will paint my current 14" myself!

I am looking for a good DIY... if you know any...

What color should I try?

I am thinking to keep the lip polished like it is and the rest in black... It will match my black housings (that I need to complete!). A kind of ghetto mini-me version of Karumba's!!! Any other idea?

Here some pics of my stock looking civic ( ) to help you:

That is all right, as imitiation is the sincerest form of flattery

Trying to remember who painted their own rims .. I'm sure it'll come to me later and I'll ask them for some pointers for you.

Oh, and those look like my old seats - fabric and everything

I'd go all black, so the wheel would not look small... it would look like a big black mass, or dont paint the hole in each branch
