nice job on the wheels btw they really suit the car. it would look great with a set of volks like tahir's or pearse's old one

it would

but then it would look like every other 4G

[HONDAB88]

true, you'd be sorted if you got another good white one for body bits, once your quarters are good the rest can be swapped, a white 25x would be ideal! they are about ive had a few. bronze windows too! look nice with a white car

[EE9 CVC]

But it does look Great in the photos.

Yes maybe, but it needs to look great in person, or whats the point....

Well, if it looks good in the photos it can't be too bad in real life, I find my car looks better when you see it than it does in photos.

would be good if i found a polar white VT or import with Vtec front end, but i doubt that will happen.

swapping windows i couldnt be arsed with, may as well just buy an siR

the photos dont show scratches, chips, mis-match paint, parking dings, flaking etc

yeh im not denying it doesnt look good, but in real life it has its let downs

ive touched up the scratches/chips already, not very well, but it will do

Looks decent in the pics, however I think that tailpipe looks wank. Sticks out too much and im not liking the design.

I also find my car looks better in person than photo's.

yes it sticks out, thats nothing new mate

i like the tailpipe, but think ill go for a twin exit, like OEM/Mugen etc..

Bought a few things from Tegiwa recently... not had the best experience.

Kevlar plug cover was not a very good shape and won't fit in the plug recess, if I force it, it will crack and scratch the cam cover, so that's having to be sent back.
Bought a radiator but the welds around the filler neck weren't very good, so I had a replacement sent.

First one...




Second one...



Unfortunately the filler neck hasn't been welded on straight, and having OCD is pretty anoying, but I doubt they would take it back again...






Tegiwa 9" fan kit to go with the above radiator...





And a magnetic gearbox drain plug...

[Tahir]

Nice bits, ive heard the ones with the straight blades are noisy.

[walsh123]

Some nice parts there Marc

But the quality of the weld on those rads are terrible, id send it back again mate i wouldnt be happey with the filler neck not being straight

[Oldskool J-EDM]

Welding aluminium is a nightmare.....hence you get what you pay for.
