    Modifying OEM parts has been around for DECADES:

    Feel free to pick on people that don't spend the time to do it right though. Had a E46 M3 in the shop the other day with black spray painted OEM wheels and they weren't even cleaned first. Paint is bubbled up and flaking, you can see the scrapes and scratches that were on the wheel underneath the paint, etc. Now if it had been media blasted and powdercoated or even just prepped properly for paint then sprayed then it would be fine.

    I've seen people do headlight conversion then wrap the $hit with electrical tape. Buy a damn bag of heat shrink for the same price as a roll of electrical tape for gods sake!!

    I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT FEELS THIS WAY...TAKE A LOOK ON HONDA-TECH AND WITNESS SOME OF THE RICE AND THE OPINIONS ON THERE....

    I respect 1% of the Honda-tech community, the rest is ridiculous trash.
