Sidemarkers are JDM. Put those on. You know, the amber/orange ones - genuine Honda Japan ones can be found on Ebay or from our registered vendors on the site. How about some lightweight rims like Spoon or Mugen (or Rotas if you can't afford the real deal). I don't consider CF hoods "JDM", but they may go well with blacked headlights.

Thats why i said most of us are "grown ups". Being most of us dont hate on the way that others "mod" their ride. But its all good man, DO ur thing and move on and as long as each and everyone of us is happy with our own ride, thats all that matters....

My SSM (MAYBE JDM) I dont know...

Pics of my SSM civic can be seen here. I dont know if it is JDM or not. I just liked the look so I went with it.
Check it out here: http://sandiego.craigslist.org/car/54277452.html

There are some good pics of the car there. let me know what you all think.. is this JDM style?

Ask around your area, word of mouth is really the only way to find a good bodyshop vs a bad one without having had work done there previous.
You know, it's not hard, you could just do it yourself and save some bucks.

You think you got it bad? My friend installed mine at his shop, and he broke his dremel on my fender....after about 20 minutes of heartbreaking metal grinding noises....well, I'm gonna stop whoring this thread now I think. Good luck man and do post pics when you're done. Don't let others get you down.

i'm not being sarcastic. i asked a simple question. it's clean when you buy a stock usdm too. so why jdm? if you want a stock, clean look.. why not just buy a stock usdm, drop it, wheels.. or whatever. why jdm? it's not like people are gonna think it's really jdm anyway.
