Rep Power: 322 On a normal SSM with a non-painted roof, I think black wheels would be awesome. But since you painted your roof black (Looks good btw), I think the wheels take it into the too much black territory. If you were to put silver wheels on there, That would be awesome. Then it would be almost like a two tone paint job. Other then that, good work.
edit: Maybe get some M3 style black mirrors?

Rep Power: 273 the whole top is one big sticker. lol. I love it
Na our graphics guy here is kick ***. he heated it up and stretched it on then cut it out on the car.
NO PARTS FROM A CAR THAT IS NOT A HONDA OR ACURA(which is still honda) WILL EVER BE ON MY CAR. I am just going to get new mirrors and paint them black to match.

Rep Power: 0 +1 on carbon trunk and mirrors. then black the headlights and its ready to go dude... i like it a lot.
edit: also get an aftermarket rear bumper or lip to even it out a bit more, and maybe consider blacking out the tails?

Rep Power: 326 I think a different grille would look a lot better. The stock one is too plain for my taste. Also, maybe lower the front another 1 or 2 coils (and this has always been my opinion) the Tsunami sides are too low for the Tsunami front. Other than that, looks good.

Rep Power: 0 here's some things i would change IMO.
- loose the decals
- blacked out stock headlights with amber (clear behind, do not black out so it stands out more)
- different grill
- get a polished lip
other than that, car looks sick, post some rear pictures too.
