I actually like mine with the tape on, mine is a gpw. but thats just my .02 cents

what is the black tape for anyways?

 

to make the rake of the a-pillar seem less, thus giving the car a more graceful and windswept appearance.

if you ever look at a berlina, you'll notice that it has no tape.

look at some before and after pics. i was going to do this but after i saw pics i didn't like the look of the shaply raked windshield.

 

Whoaaa ... way to dark in the wheels for that light of a car.

 

almost can't see the back wheels in the first pic you posted!

 

yeah, you are RIGHT! Dam they are TOO BLACK! Well what can you do...............hehe

 

Powdercoat them Or better yet, put a BBK behind them.. That's the only time I like black wheels, is when a sick brake kit lives behind them. Also, I believe Honda of North America was the only Honda to get window tape. IMO window tape should be left on unless you have a HT of the same color as the car. I own a Berlina so none of this matters to me anyways.

 

I think the dark black wheels looks good, but I really can't decide If i like the tape off or on, and it's good to see a fellow suzuka owner back with a new look on things.

 

True, maybe if I powder coat them they will have a shine to them. I was gonna powder coat the OEM wheels but I had nothing to put on in the meantime. I should of waited longer and figured somethin out.....
