Do you mean just a clean car with bronze rims or something? What's your definition of "JDM"

Well from the car he posted, I can say there's a red ralliart on here lowered with bronze rims like that and I think a black front lip.

all he means is a nice clean look...no body kits, no spoilers that are 20 feet long no 18inch chrome wheels and all that other fun stuff...i have actually been searching for a ralliart with this look as well but haven't come across many at all

that is not jdm.

JDM to me is more OEM Japanese parts than OEM.

Take the Hatch for example if he had OEM JDM Bumpers with rub strips and more colors and unique interior parts (Hint Takata and Bride). That to me is JDM unique aftermarket parts.

I think of JDM as it really is. Japanese domestic market. Things made in japan. To me, it's all a title. You can spend **** loads of money on JDM reflectors, lug nuts, wheels, bumpers, headlights etc. I'll get the same **** at half the price right here in the US. The only difference is you have to tell people it's JDM cause it's pretty hard to tell the difference just looking at something. The title for what people call JDM nowadays should be what it is, clean. That is a clean civic. No crazy body kits, decals, wings, etc.

Umm rhd is serious jdm. You can buy amber sides and all that but rhd is the real deal. I dont know why you spend the cash on that though but if you are try to find a front clip and then you are on your way

Super awesome JDM, I was cruising around town with kustomconcepts in his turboed lancer last week and spotted this at an HEB. Sorry if it's anyones on here but I have to, it's like the law or something. Cell phone pic, bad quality.

Um... I have a sigma speed Rear visor from Japan... I guess that's considered JDM...

As far as my car being clean.. its far from it, its been hit by idiots in boston too many times... I think every body panel has a scratch on it.

You are right that's what I mean but also others are right with this JDM matter is also getting japannese accesories is not the bronze wheels or the red color is more than that, well I think is a little complicate and depends on the person's definition of JDM!
Let's keep spinning the wheel!

I think a rare car worth "JDM-converting" is the integra.

But you can do that with the Lancer Cedia, Scion bB, Pretty much every acura has a JDM honda twin, it's all about a badge.
