It was alot of work, but I am pretty satisfy about the result. The car rides quieter. Not too quiet tho, because I haven't put back the other door. Anyone know what kind of material I should stuff under my carpet to reduce the road noise? I have heard jute?

Trade my rota for some oem wheels. I like ls mesh, it came with white paint. I know I shouldn't use aftermarket lug nut on oem wheels, I swap it back with oem lug nut after the picture. :lol: And for the center caps ... I need to get a set of honda center cap. I wonder how much they cost for all four..

#224028 Good choice on FatMat! I put it my sedan and I love the results! The only thing is I didnt fatman the trunk space yet and so fart can made it loud lol.

about the wheel - is the lighting low or is the wheel color resembles sorta oem silver finish, cause in the pictures the wheel color looks nice

anyways, keep up the good work :thumb:

I only did the trunk, quarter panel, under the rear seat and doors. Where else did you install them on?

Thanks, the lighting is low. It's just plain white paint. :P
