i think this is my first post in this thread, but i seriously get giddy with excitement everytime i read that you have updated pics. if, for some reason, your car is anywhere near the bay area, i'd love to get a crack at shooting it.
with that said, i was more of a sucker for your bronze ce28ns, no matter how common of a rim it may be, and i don't like the purple lugs, no matter how lightweight they may be also
i'm somewhat ambivalent on the retro honda sticker because i don't think it looks too nice, but the fact that it's old school and custom bring it back up to awesomeness. i'd have preferred a honda sticker like this, which was also custom made

with all that said, yours is still my favorite on the board and i can only aspire to have an S as clean as yours. just trying to provide constructive feedback

Thanks! Any feedback is more than welcome...That S which you posted links to looks sick! Those custom emblems do look very nice...I'll have to consider something like that! I also considered once doing the F1 BAR Honda style emblems which are countersunk into the body a little bit...but although I could probably make that work with the front bumper, don't know about doing that to the ASM trunk
I understand what you mean with the CEs...I do love them...IMO, they are an icon of tuning culture. But, I wanted to try something different as I've only ever had bronze CEs on my previous cars. I'm also in anti-bronze phase right now. Though I still think they look great. I think you would be pleasantly surprised with the Advans if you saw them with the car in the flesh...and yes, I've seen your great photography, and I think it would look awesome in the urban, dramatically lit kind of environments in your pictures...I've never really "taken" serious pics of the car. With the correct lighting and drama, it would be truly ridiculous!

how much camber you runnin' out back, diez? looks like a good amount judging how just a little more than half of the tire is picking up the gravely bits off the streets 
I was actually running more with the 9.5 CEs I had before: -4.2! Though the hardcore track guys probably run even more! Now I have -3.
