Post your painted/custom ECU covers

[IMPORTchic]

Wow, good way to represent your self, while trying to sell headers ext.

Besides that (not trying to call you out) the "offset, wire tuck, lowered, polished bay" cost just as much, or more than building a 11-12 second honda. This is the new phase that the honda scene is slowly leaning to. It went from custom fab work, to widebody's, to JDM now onto this west coast clean look.

Lets face it. I would have a damn 11 second honda right now if I spend all the money I have spent in WHEELS alone ..... BUT its not what I'm into. I would rather buy a tucked harness for 800 dollars than a turbo manifold. I would rather spend 2k on wheels that look good on my car than a built head. I would rather have my car extremely low to the ground and look "hella flush" than be able to beat a mustang from a 30 dig. To each his own.

Very good point!

Everyone has their own taste. Saying that its not your style is okay, but bashing and dragging it on and on is another.

Lets get a few things straight

1) I dont kiss anyones ass to sell my product. You either want it or you dont. Regardless of the offset of your wheels.

2) THe beauty of owning ones business is i answer to myself. SO i can say whatever i want.

3) Look i understand the fads, ive been doing this ALOT longer than 90% of you. Ask Jay, his brother built my first motor. Dino and Jay had NA cars long before i ever did. I was the only white guy at Auto Option lol

The problem with the fads, and im not going to name names, is the punk ass kids that are into them. Tom aka B18C5_EH2 has spoon wheels on his EG hatch. But you know what, he doesnt stunt and act like a complete tool bag to people.

Now, you may not know me, or what i look like, but i find myself from time to time , unfortunetly, at places alot of the people on this board frequent. I see what you guys do and its LAME. (thats not a personal shot to you, im saying this in general).

When you have a 140hp car but like to TALK SHIT to kids that have ROTAs cause you have some uber rare Volks that you paid way too much for, you are a RICER.

I really wish i could just flame some people on here by name, but its not worth the 20 pages of shit it will bring. You forget i worked at shops and interacted with these people for YEARS.

There is something to be said for a nicely lowered car with some nice wheels, but this current trend is a bunch of POSERS that like to lean on their car like Paul Walker in a parking lot cause they think cause they have a honda with some stupid mexican offset they are some JDM elitist.

I know guys with SPoon Brakes, that TRACK their car, or make over 300whp in their ITR. I know guys with super rare JDM wheels that dont act like complete douche bags to other people that DONT have those wheels.

I just love how you guys (in these trends) love to sit there and post your $3000 wheels an pat each other on the back like you just figured out cold fusion or the cure to cancer.

Ive said this 1000000 times, its not the trends, its the attitudes of the kids DOING the trends.


Dont want to go fast, dont go fast, no one says you have to. But dont act like a prick in your little click either.



EDIT: I Never flamed or bashed Evan, i just thought it was funny of all the things to do when you are bored, painting an ECU cover would be 22108435714319332049810924/3.14 would be the last on my last

"Rice" is as much or more the mentality of the owner as the mods themselves.

[Vteckidd]

exactly, like you had porsche calipers on your car, but you arent a complete asshat and you fabricated shit and made it work. It had function, you tracked your car, blahblahblah

You didnt sit on IA all day telling your buddies to post
"CLEAN!"
"HONDA-TECH STATUS!"
"SICK"

all day and you didnt make fun of people that had stock brakes.

No need to make fun of anyone with stock brakes, one pass over a mountain behind me with oem honda brakes and you'll learn real quick lol!

On the Honda challenge cars we ran aluminum wings and ALWAYS got shit for it by other teams. The Del Sols would run well over 140mph at Road Atlanta [and the Prelude was clocked doing 151 in the back stretch]. Without them the cars would rotate way too much in the turns and was too unstable at higher speeds. Put that same wing on a street car and it would look ridiculous lol! Nothing like blowing past 100% full race 911's and BMW's at VIR going up to the roller coaster during sprint and endurance races then veteren drivers coming to our paddock afterwards asking what's in that thing...200+whp, about $8k in suspension, and years of aerodynamic testing = a quick car.

[DriVaH]

your sig is funny as shit son....

[Ol' Gregg]

It is one thing for the owners.... any yes alot of people do act like they have a stick up their ass who have "nicer" than usual cars. That is a select few that i know of though and trust me I agree with you. They do think that they are better than others. NOW alot of other individuals, including myself, just like to go out and have fun with other friends. Most of my friends dont care if you have rotas, stock, no- wheels. If your a cool guy/girl than your cool in our books.

Now back on subject the new "fad" is kinda cool. Give it time and see where it goes. Who knew back in 93 that a civic hatch could look as cool as some of them now.

ok and back on the original subject -
Why did your paint the ecu? bored?


thats all folks

[DriVaH]

i cant speak 4 the guy that started this thread but i dont really think he was saying he is better than anyone cause he painted his ecu cover . I am doing mine 4 me and what i like . he asked 4 people to post up pics thats all . he got bashed instead

It was a few things combined. I was bored, I had seen it done (where I got the idea), had some extra paint, and the ECU had a large sticker that had been painted over by the previous owner... looked pretty shitty. IMO nothing on the car looks shitty so I wasn't going to possibly put it on my car. I'll also be stripping the IC piping and painting it.

Another thing that gets me, people saying it's blue and the car is green. Why does that matter? Since when does shit "match" when it comes to hondas? I'm only using Bucky as an example because his car is well-known, but carbon fiber VC, blue engine bay, and silver car doesn't match... yet I've never seen anyone say anything about it. Is that because it's a more well-known trend?

non matching colors will never be cool , color coordination is and will never be a fad.

blue and silver does matches.

It seems like you didn't read the thread. I said post pics of said part and got bashed (obviously defended myself throughout it)... how's that acting like a little kid? It's more like the people bashing are acting like little kids.

[Arm&hammer]
