Alright, so I'm finally at a point when I'm ready to get my RSX going, so I figured I'd make grab an updated "before" shot. I'll have some new aero in time for Spring IA, with hopes to have new wheels by IA summer (if I can ever pick a set out).

I personally wouldn't do anything to it. Beautiful car. Later, QD.

I feel like the front and rear fascia are a bit plain, so I wanted to touch it up with some OEM aero. Ideally, I'd like my car to be able to pass as completely stock, just really low.
I have an A-Spec (Acura OEM) lip for the front, and Type R lip for the rear, they are just waiting on paint.

Sounds perfect, man. I'm with you all the way on that.
We should get both of our cars in pics together. Two cool, blue (relatively) stock, lowered Hondas, lolol.
Although I am still searching for a clean, stock look (or tastefully modded), lowered Civic of the 2009 generation to do a "30 years of Honda" picture with.Later, QD.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but they're close enough to stock that the majority of folks don't even notice. They're obviously better wheels out there, but I feel that these have served their purpose.
Stock FYI:

I love how this looks stock and clean as possible with just little modifications here and there. I give you an A. If you're thinkin about other mustang wheels, I think the Cobra wheels on the 04-05 cobras would look baller.

I love how the Mustang wheels look on it with the car lowered. Ever considered a small lip spoiler on the hatch that the newer RSX has?

I was next to you on mercer university last week. Car looks great in person. The a-spec lip and r rear will really set it off. And the mustang wheels do look at home on the car

Andy I'm usually down with whatever makes the owner happy but Ford mustang wheels an a Type S is going too far IMO, to each his own though bro I'm sure it'll be sick for summer IA....

Domestic wheels on an import and mustang wheels at that, they don't look at all like Type S wheels maybe Cobra R's would have. But like i said if you like it then who am I to judge....

People do far worse, lolol. Putting Chevy engines in Porsches and Bimmers for example. Later, QD.
