    my chin isn't working with me very well and maybe they can fix it and make it look smooth like yours.
    I made it, the design was originally made for the Honda Challenge/SCCA Club Racing/NASA Del Sols at Raceworks but I was the first person to fabricate one for an Integra. There is now one other that i know of that has it, Zsolt on his NASA/SCCA Integra race car but he doesn't have my Porsche brakes

    Now there is STILL some NICE JDM stuff around, some real clean well done cars, with a mix of JDM/USDM styling, real built cars, that stuff is cool. And there still is good drifting. But when I saw the Alfundersteer (search JJ Alfano) my image of drifting totally changed and I saw where it was going.

    ...not to mention the JDM Cavalier that went off the parking deck.
    There's ALWAYS more bullshit than treasure, you just have to wade through it to find the good stuff. Tell me what is gay about jtuned.com? Com'n now lets be serious, you can't possibly make a comparison between it and searching "JDM" on eBay can you?

    You are right though, i don't like how the word is overused and in the context it is sometimes. I have a OEM "JDM" momo steering wheel from the Honda Integra Type-R and it is by far the best wheel i've ever encountered, the design & quality exceeds all the others i've seen & used. Momo's Italy right? SO is it really "JDM"?

    I'm been so busy with other things I don't really get a chance to go to the shop anymore. I've crewed on the Raceworks race team for several years and go up there whenever I can. As far as I know they are no longer open to the public, just strictly their own race stuff.

    Is your lip fiberglass or urethane? You would probably want a bodyshop for that. Wait, doesn't your dad own a bodyshop?!

    ^^ Showoff

    Seriously, JDM isn't all that. Look at speedminded's integra. I think it looks great, cause it's original. I'm tired of all the mainstream looks of hondas and acuras. If you really look, everyone buys the same "jdm" parts.
