    Maybe a little ricey, but I like the feel and didn't want to mess with the original that came with the car. That one is perfect, no wear at all.
    Sweet, I wouldn't call it ricey...I actually think it's pretty clean!
    How about that shifter boot that has the red stiches?

      The shift boot is the oem leather or pleather or whatever it is. I have seen the red stiched ones. They are okay I guess, but the one in my car is clean as long as I keep the dust off of it.

      Thanks for the comments.

        That's good! My cb7 used to be auto and that was the only 5spd shifter boot they had at the JY when I did the swap so it's broken but I plan on getting a new one or the ebay one with the red stiches!

          your rims are backwards. the blades aren't supposed to point to the front of the car. this might be a really bad problem if you have directional tires.

            Does that really matter? (Which way the blades are pointing). His tires don't really look directional anyway. If so wouldn't that be a tire installation problem, not a rim installation problem?

            Anyway, car looks awesome, I kinda like the blades pointed to the front. Needs a 2" drop badly though. That would be seeeeexy!

              For looks it matters. They look off to me because of it. It would only be really bad if they are directional tires. But if looks matter (which they do a lot on the interwebz) then they are facing the wrong direction.

              However, his car does look great.

                      The tires are coopers and are not directional. The guy I bought the rims off of said they can run either way without issue and the prelude guys run them both ways. Seems to ride fine. I like them pointing forward and intentionally put them on that way. I think it looks better. To each his own I say!

                            Definitely to each his own. I never meant to imply that your car looked bad, just wanted to let you know. But you already do anyways, which makes your car look even better to me.
