Wow, how can you tell? Considering that none of the shots are straight on, it might be a little hard
to really determine that.

Looks sharp, Rick. That is also the one cosmetic mod I've been considering, since it really dials in the roaster heritage and let's me proudly display Honda's badge to the import bashers. I wonder how it would appear on black.

PS Where does one obtain Zenit?

New and better photos have been posted top.

Lyndon_h is right about the rims and rubber. 18" SSR GTs shod with Michelin Pilot sports, 225 front 255 rear. I love this wheel/tire combination. I've never liked the Bridgestone stock tires (the poor wet and cold performance spooked me), so I got rid of them almost as soon as the car was delivered. First I had 17" rims with Dunlop SP9000s.

The ride with the 18" rims is almost as good as the ride with the 17", and the Michelins are definitely superior to the Dunlops. Handling in the wet is very good, ride is good, noise is not an issue, and handling is superior.

Yeah, got the sun right from that side. Also fixed the badge height relative to the side marker.
