iForged wheels suck *****.
Good luck with the quality on those! Let alone their customer service!
Your X on the other hand looks great, just not a big fan of the wheels.

I wish body kits could be banned. It not that the kits themselves aren't good looking, or that the kits might provide improved performance, if fact, what really gets me ticked about body kits is that these beautiful, and sometimes functional, body peices are constructeed well below what would be considered quality.
I enjoy the OEM bodykits available like the JDM rear, ect. If only the quality, construction, and R/D of these various kits were similar to providing an OEM like fit, while providing a wider margin of durability, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase a kit myself.
Bottom line, for the costs of adding a body kit to any car, its obvious that the preceived benefits -either preformance, or enhanced styling- are a trade off from creating a body panel that can rival the benefits of OEM body peices, and still weather the the test of time, and wear and tear from daily usage.
I had an original +1 Ings full body kits on my RSX-S, and although the quality of true JDM bodykits completely blow away mass produced kits- I can't stand the idea that most kits either don't fit well, stunt performance, are prone to cracking from vibration and blades off grass, and/or detract from the idea that the selected body mod was of a rational decision. I sometimes wonder why people choose to add a bodykit to their car, especially when I imagine that their main reasoning behind that purchase might have been to improve the looks of their automobile.
Anyhow, I am partial the EVO displayed in this thread. The body panels seem to have a good fit and finish, however, the rear and sides make the outside appear too busy; looks like a confused car have troubling deciding if it should take the identity of a rally bred legend, or a mortal combat veteran.
The wheels, however, are so much to my liking that I think the wheels might be making up for the negative aspects of that styled body kit. They are truly a unique design that hints quality, wealth, and individualism.
What brand, model, size, and offset are those rims?
Anyhow, try to keep the car clean, and to let the overall quality, and preformance of the vehicle create a tone that is to be respected, and iconic.
