That and put correct badging on the car and it would be drivable. Later, QD.

And it will be drivable? Wheel color and badging doesn't affect the drivability of the car.

You didn't offend me, I posted the thread to get opinions but saying my car isn't drivable? Trust me it is, I drive it all the time.

It was my opinion. I was trying not to sound assholish. I could have stated that it looks like shit and a few other things, but I was trying to be a little respectful.

And I didn't mean not drivable in the literal sense. Later, QD.

If you think it looks like shit thats cool it's your opinion it's not gona bother me. If I was gona be offended by everyone who didn't like the way I modded my car I wouldn't have posted a thread.

I don't think it totally looks like shit. I just think the mis-badging does and the wheels could use a different color (polished, of course). Later, QD.

Looks good! If you ever change colors you should go with time attack.. It'll match your car


And my opinion about the badges.. They are fine.. Your car is a Honda and has Honda badges(stickers) all over the engine and other places.. Now if you put an integra badge it would be a little rivet.. And if you haven't already.. You should get the itr steering wheel

the honda badges were one of the first things i did to the car took all the other badges off(rsx and type s) no other badges will go on the car. im not a fan of the time attack style wheels.

I think i like the old wheels a little better, but i had to look at the pictures for about 5 minutes to come to that conclusion. Both look good. I'd probably like the TEs better in a different color, but cant hate on all black.

I know what you mean, I like both sets. I wanted to try the black on black. I was looking for te's or ce's for a wile cause how light they are.

Actually Honda made the cars and acura sold them.. They were made in the same HONDA factory in Japan as the integra and have Honda badges all over them.. So to me they are Hondas.. I don't care what you call them..

Would your panties get into a bunch if someone put a Acura badge on a NSX or a Honda badge on a nsx? Didn't think so...

Lectures to me aren't really necessary, dude. Like the OP said, his title states Acura so that's what it is.

Talk about putting someone in their place. I feel put.

Lol... I'm just giving u a hard time.. We are both right.. It is an Acura and Honda.. Everyone knows

Of course I didn't give you time to answer.. Then you wouldn't feel "put" right now would you? No you wouldn't.. Lol

Anyways the rsx is really clean.. I would paint the wheels time attack to match the car and badges..and eventually seats if it was my car.. The blue just throws it off.. It still looks good.. That's just my opionion though.. They are volks so it doesn't matter if they are hot pink.. They are my favorite wheels
