Easy now, even though I've been here for 3 years I am still American. Even though I can't figure out the jap car craze that is going on there.  :D

it's starting to take off here too, except people are trying to make their sh**ty little novas look 'jap'. I must confess i have some freinds who like to do this thing, obscene bodykits etc. and they can't understand my obsession with these 'tiny' little 14's and no intension of 'bodykitting' and 'icing' my car. A wheel is not a wheel unless its over 18 inches wide in their eyes.

please don't take offence, i am not essentially racist(despite being a brit) jks mate.

No offense taken mate. No one knows the name americans have made for themselves better than me. :) Heres one everyone may enjoy. This guy who is at the same base as me has a Honda accord. He has gone and put a huge rear wing on it, Body kit, 19" wheels, a full roll cage, and even gone to the trouble of installing what appear to be a fake intercooler in the front nose piece. The car is a 1.6 liter totally stock no turbo, no supercharger, nothing. Now to me It would have made more sence to put all the money for the previous mentioned stuff into the engine than stuck all over the out side. Maybe they get it from the nova boys or french boys whose cars always seem to look like the drove it through halfords with a big magnet.  ;D. Take care

I currently have an Accord with a huge rear wing on it and also a subtle bodykit with big wheels (17") - however the Accord Type R's come like that ;) ;D

Anyway not for long though as she's being sold to make way for a baby and new house - hence why I'm lurking round here as I want a MkII Gti - going back to my roots you see :).
