I like it, looks like a great spot for air ducts to me. When will people realize that painting OEM calipers looks cheap/tacky.

Looks good, but probably going to be wayy too much for what you're getting like the mugen civic.

I won't disagree that Honda has become clueless, but, the CR-Z does have a fog light option for there, see

But, if you are going to open pandora's box and talk about CR-Z lights, the real issue is how once again Honda screws those of us in North America

See, beautiful LED bottom edge of headlight, very nice, very upmarket


See, cheaper crap we get here

I like everything but the hood. For some reason I just think it would look better if it matched the color of the car.

There is this...

Although Honda and Mugen say they have no immediate plans to build even a limited edition of the CR-Z Mugen, customers in the U.K. can order a number of the components through authorized dealers.
There is also the fact that if it did come here, it would probably be $30 grand. Sales figures probably wouldn't even break into the quadruple digits. I can speak for anyone else, but this car is not exciting to me AT ALL. I don't even think it look's good.

i'd like it if someone gave me a few grand for a bbk, but in the meantime, my painted calipers are more satisfactory than the stock nastiness.

honda really ought to hire someone, anyone from pininfarina. even the janitor there would prob bring some much needed style.
