Does my car look JDM or not?

I am wondering if you guys think my car looks similar to jdm or not. if not what can i do to make it look better towards a jdm civic? i dont want 15inch slipstreams though.

Thanks for the opinions.

GALLERY FOR CIVIC

Please dont hold any comments back, they wont hurt my feelings, i am just tryin to see what i can do to make it more jdm like. I am fixing to purchase a type r or mugen front lip when i get the money.

i dont think so. u got those looks like tyc projectors. get stock lights and black them out with the amber piece in and get different rims. 15's or 16's black or bronze rims then ur on ur way to jdm styling.

It is totaly IMPOSSIBLE for a 7thgen coupe to look JDM. Your only choice is EDM.

yea the best you can do is DYI ur stock headlights black and leave the amber part there, for the kit you will need the RS kit or the Type A, and put a good drop on that also like a 2.25 drop, next you need some 15 inch light rims like some ROTAs they are not expensive Bronze or gold or black, and the RS grill without the RS. Amber side marker,

just buy some stock ones and then DIY them... dont do what everyone is tellin you to do.. however, they have been some goooood request: BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you dont know what to do to make your car look a certain way! dont do it... it seems like you are trying to make your car look like someone elses ride... JDM IS DOPE, but if you dont know about it then NOPE !!!! (and for everyone that says, only 4 doors can be JDM, yes, technicaly you are correct : But it is the style that "some" of the two doors are goin for) there are a bunch of haterz here.... Injen, do what u want to make your car look unique to you. for those others that keep on hatin... people post here to get your oppinion and i think now EVERYONE KNOWS THAT A TWO DOOR CANT BE REAL JDM... so stop repeating yourselves... Good luck Injen

i don't understand what peoples obsesion is to make their car look like they bought it somewhere else. I have EDM tails but not because i wanted the car to look like its from europe, they just look better than stock.

I can't wait for this JDM thing to get old like racing stripes and whatnot. but then of course god knows what will be next.

NASCAR style!!!

doesnt look jdm, and i dont think it will ever be jdm, unless your car is bought in japan it wont be offically jdm. Your car looks nice, and just because its not jdm doesnt mean its ****
