Track time is a def. must in these cars I also recommend at least 1 trip to the Dragon if you're on the east coast.

 

Interesting. How is that place?

 

agreed. i dont understand oem fanboys.

also tired of the "it decreases the value" argument. im sorry, would i rather have a car i love to look at and drive and enjoy everyday for the years i own it? or would i rather feel like a giddy schoolgirl when i sell my stock one for 2 or 3k more? sorry, enjoyment > money. id be content with selling my S for 5k when im done with it.

 

"would i rather have a car i love to look at and drive and enjoy everyday for the years i own it?"

Me too! And it's so awesome b/c I can do all of this with stock fenders

Not all "values" are monetary.

 

Honda OE engineering > mods

 

Wheels that fit are highly underrated. That is why.

 

im not knocking it by any means.
i just done understand the obsession with agressive fits or flushed fit.
sure it looks a little better when its flushed but i just dont get it..

then theres the guys who just go completely overboard with it..
i cant figure out how your car looking like its sitting on broken axles looks "good"...

i guess its like the deep dish wheels trend of the 90s..

never really got that either.

 

Depends on how you look at it.

OE Honda stuff was designed for the masses. A 60 year old Grandma down to the 20 year old hot shot. The suspension is comfortable enough for all weathers for all people across the globe.

There is nothing wrong with customizing the vehicle to suit your needs better. A very simple example would be some stickier tires, they wear much faster than the stock Bridgestones but they grip much much better. They also aren't for every season.

 

Not sure what's so hard to grasp, you've answered it yourself. It looks better to the owner, so they do it. You think it looks better but don't want to roll your fenders - you don't do it.

 

Theres an owner of a white AP2 that rolled his fenders who goes to my gym, everytime I see the car it makes me cringe. Dents everywhere! smh
