Re: Front Lips.. im torn between 2

go for mugen style, carbon fiber...thats what i did, I had OEM and it was ok, but I feel the mugen style flows better and gives the front end more of a JDM look.

Re: Front Lips.. im torn between 2

no, JDM refers to Japan Spec, what you think they don't make coupes there?

Japanese domestic market
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Japan Domestic Market)
Jump to: navigation, search
The term JDM Japanese domestic market (JDM) is used to describe Japan's economic market for Japanese-brand goods, chiefly automobiles and parts. A similar term, United States domestic market (USDM) is used for US-market, US-brand goods.

In recent years the popularity of JDM auto parts within the United States and Europe has grown significantly as a result of the import tuning wave. Part of the reasoning behind this can be attributed to drifting, a Japanese motorsport phenomenon that is gaining worldwide interest.

JDM vehicles often differ in features and equipment from vehicles sold elsewhere. For example, Honda has produced many different versions of the B18C, B16B, and K20A engines for various markets worldwide. Generally, engines intended for use outside Japan have been detuned because Japanese Gasoline (Petrol) is of a higher octane rating than is generally available in the United States.

There are safety hazards associated with using JDM headlamps in countries where traffic flows along the right side of the road, because JDM headlamps, engineered for use on the left side of the road, fail to light the right-side driver's way safely ahead while blinding oncoming motorists. Nevertheless, primarily due to their rarity, JDM headlamps are quite sought after[citation needed]. There are different standards with safety issues between JDM and USDM, some of Japans race models have less frame support, such as the front cross members or some of the doors, which are designed to save weight in Japan. Some of these differences would keep the vehicles from passing government safety standards in North America[citation needed].

to the OP: do you have any other body work planned out or are you just going to slap on a front lip and call it a day?
