90% of the users on Honda-Tech have a realization of the need for function over forum. Hence the simple looking cars (nothing flashy because thats not what their/our cars are about).. However a lot of them are rocking swaps and/or major suspension mods.

Body kits and big rims are excessive, they are form over function in a sense, but still make the car look pretty fucked up most of the time.. Especially since everyone wants to do it so cheap now, so they all buy knock off kits that don't fit properly and shit.

I think its more important for a car to function better than it looks. Some people think it should just look good and don't care about how it handles or how quick it is.. Some people think they need to get altezzas to "look different" when in a sense they just wind up looking like thousands of other people who did the exact same thing for the same effect. Some people just say fuck it and leave their taillights alone.

Its just personal preference, people should be aloud to say what they think about stuff, just as much as you have the right to say you don't like that they all agree. Agree?

i think you hit that one on the nose

I have had my 4g for about 9 years and have been modding it ever since I first had it. Trends have changed over the years. My car has gone through some transformations but every time I change something I don't do it for anyone but me. I like the WW kit because it fits great and looks clean. Have had a different kit B4 and it looked ok but fit like shit. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I laugh when I get flamed about my Euros. I always get the "they are so played out..." . I don't care.. If I wanted my car to be plain I would left it alone. Enough rambling... gonna fly...

You can't come back with a reply like that. It's like if I say mustangs are gay and you come back saying "What do you think people are going to say on www.mustangforums.com and www.mustangworld.com?"

all Im saying is that the "JDM Style" Is a fad....regardless of whether you have a Japaneese part on your car...it means you have a sleak looking car thats not outrageous looking.....Im just sick of hearing the same thing.....Get some 15" Blackies on there and get a JDM CLip......every suggestion I hear is the same thing....I thought modifying cars was an expression of your creativity.......yes ? Then why do you want everyone elses car to look the way YOU want it ?

Wonder if people in Japan are like "Oh yeaaaaa, I got the USDM white clock from a 91 civic" LOLZ

Dude, people have been doing cars up but keeping them clean since the 60s and 70s, I don't see whats a fad about it?!

Kicker1_solo - He was saying that they were complaining about what he planned on Honda-Tech and JDMCivic.com.. Thats why I pointed out the obvious, because of the sites he was talking about.
