^^ I'm not a fan of black and chrome, but that looks great. Very clean sir!

JoshRS2

To be honest, neither am I anymore. Wheels are going to be powder coated a deep gunmetal, and the grille bracket will most likely be painted black. Glad you like it though! The seibon hood fit like a charm, my only complaint was that I had to do some serious filing to get the nozzles to fit... freaking scratched the around around there once or twice too FML.

you know that the grills are worth aome serious $$$.

If you are going for a different look I'd buy some grill and paint them. The RS2 grills are getting harder and harder to find

i like the hood looks sweet!!

JoshRS2

oh yeah buddy i'm well aware, I kept my RS2 grilles and just straight up replaces them with an awesome powdercoated set from figure grilles. I was going to put them on eBay, but I think im going to hold on to them.

JoshRS2

Thanks man!

Thats cool buddy. I'd just be sad to see them get painted. I almost did the exact same thing. I was going to go with dark (gunmetal, blacketc) rims and I wanted to paint the girll frame to match. But I just couldn't bring myself to do it

JoshRS2

yeh i've decided to go with the whole black and blue theme, as most RS2's do. The Chrome-ish release series grille just didn't look right with the hood to me.

Nice RS man! The stance/wheel combo is pretty unique for an RS2. Are you using spacers? or is that just the wheel offset?

dropzone

^Likely 16x8 +0, to pull those of well needs to be lower.

JoshRS2

just a little in the rear imo.

thisisluiss

yeah wheels are 16x8.5 +0 and tires 195/45/16 i love it makes the car look lower than it is. only thing i hate is that all the little hondas have an eye on my wheels but luckily for me my car sleeps inside and i have cameras at my job

dropzone

^I forgot the wheels are dual pattern, damn that sucks, which is I prefer a wheel with single pattern. Many cars are making the move to a 114.3 spacing.

heres another from the same shoot, its my buddies RS1 and my RS2

ddplion

Nice. I love this pic with the RS1 and RS2 next to each other. My favorite 2 tc release series

JoshRS2

So the coilovers are installed. Here are some quick droid pics
[attach][/attach] I lowered the front more after that pic [attach][/attach]
As it sits now I have about 8 threads front and 13 in the rear.. ill probably lower it more all around before the alignment.
